ASUS Zenith Extreme - Wake on LAN not working from android

stevehero · 01 Apr 2020

I cannot find anything relating to this specific motherboard. The ASUS Zenith Extreme.

Here's what I've tried so far. If anyone owns this motherboard and got WOL working then please let me know if I missed out on any steps.

I have the latest bios update Version 2001 for Windows 10 18363.
Have the latest drivers for my onboard Intel(R) I211 Gigabit with IP shown in the screenshots below 192.168.1.89
Enabled the Power On By PCI-E/PCI in the BIOS.
Disabled the fast boot in the BIOS.
Enabled these settings in the adapter card settings in Device Manager:
Power Options
WakeMeOnLan utility from Nir Sofer

This shows all the devices in green meaning that they're all on, in which case this is correct.

From here, I know that the values are correct to enter into the app from the play store.
I then downloaded this from the Play Store. Wake on LAN and entered the same values but it won't wake the PC and the app shows no green overlay to show that it's on like how WakeMeOnLan shows.
I've also download WakeOnLAN https://wol.aquilatech.com/ and entered in the exact same details there and managed to restart my PC using that, although this was installed on the same machine as I was restarting. But this tells me that it can work but getting it to work with any mobile app isn't working out.

Any help here would be great to fix this issue.

Not sure this is a fix. Under Advance Power Options you show a screen shot of PCI Express.

Within Sleep category, Advance Power Options, there is a setting for "Allow wake timers". It looks like you did a lot of research and likely already know this. Just thought I would mention as you din't show screen shot.

Yes, I forgot to add that. I've tried that much to get this working I've lost track.

That's the reason I just setting the power to high performance.

I'm thinking there's maybe some port forwarding to do in the router perhaps?

Can you wake this device from another PC's on Lan?

I only have the one pc at home and with what's going on in the world I'm stuck with what I have to test.

If I enter the credentials in the WakeOnLAN app then it works to shut the pc down but that's not really much use. At least I know some parts of the setup is correct.
