    Need Help Setting Up "Wake On Lan"


    I checked the bios, and the "Wake On Lan" feature is enabled, but when I go to Device Manager and open Network Adapter's properties, the "allow this device to wake the computer" is grayed out. Also I'm sure that I'm the one who disabled that feature in a previous build, because my PC randomly started on it's own. Now I need the WOL feature and it's grayed out.

    You need to tick the box "Allow the computer to turn off......", then the option will be available for you.

    Check in Advanced tab whether either "Wake on Pattern Match" or "Wake on Magic Packet" is enabled.

    As you have already got WOL enabled in BIOS, try the part( snip) from this link:

    Just some enable or disable tabs that you can look at. I not sure what they control? Just looking around and ran into them.

    Hi Marron,
    Those Options are under Power Management tab and not in Advanced tab for your adapter, sorry for misleading
    Just enable them and see what happens.

    I don't see the "Deep Sleep Control" in bios. Here's how it looks like:

    The power management tab still looks like this, so I guess I don't really get what you mean by "those options". I don't see "Wake on Pattern Match" or "Wake on Magic Packet" anywhere.
