Hello,
I would like to use Wake-on-LAN (WOL), but I can't get it to work.
I'm on Windows 10. From the device manager, properties of my network card, I have the following options:
WoL / Network speed shutdown: 100 Mbps first
Wake on Magic Packet: Enabled
Then I have options like (I don't know if this changes much)
Allow Wake by Magic Packet: Enabled (Disabling it doesn't change anything)
Energy-saving Ethernet: Disabled
Green Ethernet: Disabled
In the "Power Management" of my network card, I've enabled all options:
> Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power
> Allow this device to wake the computer from sleep mode
> Only allow a magic packet to wake the computer from sleep mode
(what I see here in parentheses is that it only applies to sleep mode, and not to a complete "shutdown" of the computer).
My PC is connected via Ethernet, behind a Livebox. I want to do WOL (so internally, in my LAN).
My network card is a Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller, with the driver in its latest version according to Windows update (v 10.2.703.2015 from 03/07/2015).
From my BIOS, I found no option to enable or do anything regarding WOL.
Thank you in advance for your help,
Best regards,

Hi
Not good, it needs to be disabled
Then, how do you send the magic packet?
First, check that it actually reaches the concerned PC with Wake on LAN Monitor

Thank you for your incredibly quick reply :)
I wasn't aware of this really handy tool.
Indeed, I do not receive (according to the software) any packets. Is it normal for UDP to be on 4343?
I attempted to send the magic packet from one computer running Windows (https://www.dipisoft.com/; WakeOnLan v3.9.7) and from my Raspberry (running Debian, with 2 different tools). No change.
I have disabled the function as requested
(ps: my username has changed because I registered on the site, but I am the same person)

I just tested with the Depicus tool for WOL, and my PC seems to be receiving the packets well; but the PC does not wake up once turned off

My apologies, I gave you some nonsense.
Here are my settings with the same network card as yours:
Wake on LAN: Enabled
Wake on Magic Packet: Enabled
WoL/Shutdown network speed: 10 Mbps first
Driver version (I had quite a few issues with WoL regarding this with the default W10 drivers):
Provider: Realtek
10.28.615.2018 from 06/15/2018
https://realtek-download.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/0029-Install_Win10_10028_07252018.zip
After that, it comes down to the BIOS, but some motherboards indeed don't have anything (for example, the Gigabyte in my partner's PC), everything happens at the driver level under Windows.
What brand and model is yours?

The problem is not how we fill it out since the magic packet arrives fine
After adjusting the BIOS, did you save it, restart and shut down Windows?
To answer your question, I start the PC with the utility volcmd using a simple bat file that contains:
wolcmd MAC_address_of_the_network_card local_IP_address_of_the_network_card 255.255.255.0 7

Strangely, once the PC is turned off, the network card doesn't blink.
I did the same in "hibernate," nothing works; however, in "sleep," it works.
So, it must indeed come from something else :(

No, it's a powered-off PC with Windows shutdown (that's what I want ^^) and that's exactly what I thought (because some sites talk about PCs in sleep mode, which seemed strange to me).
So that's exactly what I want to do, and the problem is still not resolved :(
And indeed, the network card doesn't seem to be blinking (shouldn't it be blinking when WOL is activated?)

uh, my BIOS update didn't work, I'm still on an old version. That tool was a bit crappy.
I'll check how to update it first =(
Which option is for the beeps so I can turn it off? =)

I just updated the BIOS and this time it's good (for the BIOS version). I have the same one as you.
I put the option for wake on LAN back in the BIOS.
Nothing works :( no change :(
