For instance, when I send magicpackets from my router (which has a utility built in) everything works fine. Last suggestion is to try from a machine nearby on the lan so you can watch what is happening in realtime. Regardless, you should check the bios options for anything related to WoL functionality on your machine. My computer (dimension 9150) does not have explicit WoL bios support - so I can only resume from standby or hibernate but not when the computer is fully turned off. Wake on OS might also work, I'm not sure.īroadcom's options may be different, but that should get you started.

Under the advancaed driver tab: Wake on Magic & Directed. Under the power management tab: Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power (Checked), Allow this device to bring the computer out of standby (checked), Only allow management stations to bring the computer out of standby (Checked). For my setup (on XP with an intel card), I have the following options:

To the OP, make sure to get the latest drivers from - they will be newer than dells. Just curious as I have the same router you mentioned you dont use DHCP so how are you connting the systems to the router.i dont see a reserve function in the router. Check "Allow this device to bring the computer out of standby" and then "Only allow management stations to bring the computer out of standby" to make sure it does not wake up on every single network activity that occurs.

This can be done in Windows from the properties of the network card in the device manager, on the "Power Management" tab. In addition, in order to get WoL to work it is sometimes required to enable this feature on the card. It may also be necessary to configure the computer to reserve power for the network card when the system is shut down. Wake on LAN must be enabled in the Power Management section of the motherboard's BIOS. Older motherboards must have a WAKEUP-LINK header onboard and connected to the network card via a special 3-pin cable however, systems supporting the PCI 2.2 standard coupled with a PCI 2.2 compliant network adapter typically do not require a WoL cable as the required standby power is relayed through the PCI bus. Most modern motherboards with an embedded Ethernet controller support WoL without the need for an external cable. Wake on LAN (WoL) support is implemented in the motherboard of the computer. Have you tried disabling the allow the computer to turn off this device to save power? seems like you are telling the nic too things go to sleep and then try to wake up.i would think that the nic should be ready at any time to wake on lan. I do not use DHCP for my PCs (I do have DHCP enabled on the router for my TiVo). My XPS is connected to the router with cat5, and I have a couple of laptops on wireless connections.
I have a home network set up with a cable internet connection and a linksys WRT54G router. Power Management is set to "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" and "allow this device to bring the computer out of standby." The NIC wakeup capabilities is set to both. I have tried both S3 and S1 standby modes.

My only option is to power down the PC by holding the power button. I am using the same login at the console and with remote desktop, but I have no problems with the remote desktop connection if my XPS is in a fully powered state.Īfter attempting to "wake on LAN", I cannot get the PC to resume from standby, even at the console.
Remote desktop connects, and allows me to enter my user name and password, but the window just closes when I click OK. I can ping my 720's ip address, and the first packet times out, but the subsequent packets return replies from the ping, so it appears that the ping has brought the computer out of standby. I have tried a couple of utilities to send magic packets, and could not get the PC to resume from standby. If I put my 720 in standby, I can not get it to wake on lan activity. Does the XPS 720 support wake on LAN? Has anyone used this functionality?
