Hi,

I had the wake on lan feature work well with my other motherboard (kk266plus r) in my server, but after installing the p4p800 dxl in the server, I am using the 3c940 gigbyte onboard nic, I can not get the wol feature to work.

Here's what I have done so far:

1) In bios, set the Onboard lan = enabled, onboard lan boot rom = enabled

2) In winxp pro, set the power state to standby

3) Onboard Nic, advanced setting, wake on lan = both

4) Current power state = D0 for the onboard nic (does this need to change and if so, how?)


I have tried the Rshutdown2 and rntshutdown progs to remotely shutdown the computer and they both worked.

I have used the mc-wol.exe and wol.exe progs with the nic's mac address. On the KK266 board it worked. On this board, it's a no go. BTW. The mac address of the old board's nic (dlink) and the onboard nic's mac address are the same. Can this be?

thanks,

octavious
