Do I have Wake on LAN
Posted: Mon Apr 02, 2012 2:40 am
Hi,
I have a fit pc2i serial number 100614-043. I'm trying to get WoL working.
Windows 7 is the OS. If I choose sleep from the shutdown menu all the lights go out on the network port (I have tried eth1 and eth2) and the light for the lan port on the router at the other end of the cable goes out as well. I gather the network port remains powered in S3 to permit WoL packets to be received, but it looks to me as though the network card is not powered. I can't get the magic packet to wake the pc.
Do I have a hardware problem. Is the correct behaviour for the lan lights to be off in standby? There doesn't seem to be any BIOS options regarding sleep states.
Thanks,
Martin.
