From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I can try test that.
The camera is always accessible via the android app, but that's not quite the same.
The android app, if proprietary and manufacturer specific, could very well be sending its own magic wake-on-lan packet to check if the camera is alive.
I unfortunately don't know enough about nitty-gritty networking stuff to help with the actual routing though, refer to the other commenters for that.
This is what I thought it sounded like too. I’ve seen similar behavior with wake on lan before.
