Hi there
I'm having trouble getting the Wake-On-Lan to work.
Here is what I did so far:
- I activated Wake-On-Lan in UEFI (there is only one option for this in my UEFI)
- On my network adapter (Device Manager/Network adapters/Realtek PCIe GbE Family Controller/Properties) on the tab "Advanced" I activated ALL the settings, regarding Wake-On-Lan / wake on receiving the magic packet and on the tab "Power Management" I enabled the following three checkboxes: "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" "Allow this device to wake the computer" "Only allow a magic packet to wake the computer"
- I disabled the "Turn on fast start-up" setting in the Power Options (some people recommended doing this, if you're using Windows 10)
- I updated the UEFI to the newest version available (according the ASUS website)
- I reinstalled Windows 10 and installed all the Windows Updates
My mainboard: ASUS P8Z77-V LX
UEFI version: 2501 (date: 07/21/2014)
I'm trying to wake my computer via my router (there is an integrated function, which sends the magic packet to the device). So far it never worked.
I think the issue is with my network card, because everytime I put my computer to Sleep or Hibernate or Shut down the network cart turns off (the LEDs don't blink anymore) and I guess the magic packet never gets the chance to do anything.
Does anyone has/had the same issue?
Greetings
