Also, make sure you clients OS enables WOL. For windows this is in the
Power Management tab in the Device manager properties for the NIC.
Depending on the version of Windoze it is called various things (magic
packet, "Only allow management stations to wake the computer")
What does it have to do with the operating system? if the computer is powered
off then the operating system doesn't come into play. Are you confusing this
with wake from standby?
Perhaps I am confused; I thought the OP wanted wake from Standby...
But, as you point out, the OS should not be involved in wake from a power
off.
I find the wake from a full power off is often a comopletely different
setting in the BIOS.
