I have hit a compromise , I WOL from completely shut off , booting my HP
microserver , but then it does not sleep .
So I just boot it when I get home from work , touching any of my players

Just to confirm - my Windows LMS runs 24/7 and I still get a timeout on
the first connection of the day (or when it's been idle for a few hours

I run LMS 7.7.2 on Windows Server 2008. I always find that the first
request sent to the server each day from a mobile device (e.g. the
