Wednesday, December 11, 2002 at 12:43 am 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. [Reply or follow-up to this message] re: Wake-On-Lan.... whats the beef!

This works in mt scenario I have port 32767 UDP port fwd to 192.168.1.255 on magic packets I put the MAC the ip with a subnet of 255.255.255.255 this sends it directly to you machine and voila its on.

Monday, January 26, 2004 at 8:34 pm Posted by Alan Spicer (1 messages posted) * If machine does not have an IP address when it is in standby, then IF you do not have a router how can you wake it ? Send a broadcast to the entire subnet you are on with your ISP? That wouldn't be good. And it may not even be passed by ISP's routers. And if you are dynamic IP like most folks on Cable or DSL, how do you know what subnet you will be on (if it changes) ? But then again, this is Wake on LAN not wake on WAN. So maybe I am barking up the wrong cable. (I haven't done anything with WOL or Magic whatever, so excuse that I haven't tried this stuff) I'd want to wake up my PC remotely over the Internet. That may be the MAGIC thing. --- Alan On Monday, October 13, 2003 at 1:00 pm, caperj wrote: >In order for it to work you myst fwd a port on your linksys UDP only to xxx.xxx.xxx.255 >because your machine does not have an IP when in standby.

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.

I am running windows 2003 server. I installed the drivers for the card but in network card properties there is no power management tab for the network card so i have no feature to enable the card to wake the PC up. When i shut down the pc it turns off by itself and the lights on the network card are on. I try to send the packet over lan and internet but i have no luck. I am runniong my setup through a 4 port router it is called "wise". I downloaded the magic packet logger/sniffer from depicious.com and when i send the packed from another computer the logger does show the packet comes through, but when the pc is off it does not turn it on, does anybody have any ideas? Is it that small business server 2003 does not suport this?
