re: Question about 'Getting Wake On Lan (sometimes called Remote Wake Up) to work'

In Device Manager, Network Adapters, (your NIC), Properties, Advanced, set
Link Wakeup(Off->On) to 'Disabled.'
Link Wakeup(On->Off) to 'Disabled.'

My best guess why:
The link flag measures whether there's a physical network connection.  The first 
(resp., 2nd) property says to wakeup the computer whenever a connection's present 
(resp., absent).

I was having this problem going from full shutdown to automatic power-on (can't turn 
off PC).

My specs: XP, Linksys LNE100TX (driver upgrade to v5 @ mfr website)

Now, anybody know how to get the NIC light to stay on after shutdown?  I don't have 
any 'NDIS' property to play with.
