Wake-On-Lan.... whats the beef! Wednesday, December 11, 2002 at 12:43 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Chad (4 messages posted) Ok... i'm recieving mixed messages about Wake On Lan. For instance, is thie tech ACTUALLY capable of powering up a machine or JUST waking it up from standby? I have a WinXP box here behind a linksys router. The NIC is the 905c-tx-m from 3Com. I have enabled a few settings within the WinXP NIC settigs for my 3com card to allow the device to wake the PC up. I have also "enabled" a few other settings within the NIC settings. Next I opened the 2304 UDP port on the router to forward to my static local IP address of the WinXP box. I have tested the setup with the AMD MagicPacket software, (I am using the router's external IP and my WinXP MAC address as the info for MagicPacket). STILL NO GO! Any ideas? I have checked the BIOS and it's set properly. Help please.
