No, your computer will not wake from off if it is disabled in whatever OS was running last. I'm not sure why that is, but from experience I can tell you it is true. In Windows you have to go into device properties for the NIC under the advance tab and enable magic packet WOL. In linux you use ethtool. Other OSes will have similar settings. db --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
