Damn, this WOL stuff is a pain in the neck...
I have a couple of computers with ASUS P4P800 mobos (plain old, not
deluxe, or s, or se...)
I can't get WOL to work.
I have downloaded and installed the latest beta BIOS, and enabled the
wake by PCI devices in the BIOS.
I have set the Windows settings to wake on Magic Packet, and set the
power management to "allow this device....".
What I have noticed is that my other system with the P4P800S - which
works - when it is powered down, the LAN connection as seen from the
back of the computer is ACTIVE, lights are blinking.
When I check the back of the computer with the P4P800 in it, the LAN
connection goes DARK when the computer is shut-down from Windows XP.
Just to make sure, I set the KBDPWR, and USBPWR jumpers to the "ON"
position, and tried again. No dice!
The only other difference between the systems is that the P4P800S is
using a PCI LAN card with the on-board LAN disabled, and the P4P800 is
using the built-in LAN.
I noted the LOTS of people had problems with this, but no one I could
find posted back a solution to the problem!
I welcome ALL ideas and suggestions, and I PROMISE to post back if
your advice corrects the problem!
Thanks!
