<p class=MsoNormal>Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> I’ve been butting my head against the
wall on this one long enough and thought maybe someone out there might be able
to help me. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’ve been trying to setup wake on lan and have had
mixed success. We have some Dells, and some Gateway/MPCs. No problems
with the Dells. No problems with some of the Gateways but, they are from 2
different years. The ones in question are E-2610Ds with the Broadcom Nextreme
gigabit nics. They have a boot agent installed to allow configuration during
the boot process by pressing ctrl + s. When I enable “Pre-boot on lan”
and press F4 to save it looks good but, upon reboot the config has changed back
to disabled. I’ve set the BIOS to allow WOL. Maybe, I’m
barking up the wrong tree as I’m new to WOL. I’ve installed the
latest drivers (had to, to get the configuration for WOL in the NICs drivers).
I’ve made sure that the power options allowed for the NIC to wake it up.
Gateway’s support stinks especially for MPC products but, I suppose I
should be grateful that they are providing any support at all after MPC went
bankrupt. Any assistance would be helpful.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>BTW, I have Wake on LAN & IH WOL installed on my PC to
send the magic packets. IH WOL has network discovery, allows packets to be sent
to multiple computers at once, and keeps the MAC & IP addresses so they don’t
have to be hand typed every time. Pretty nice.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>TIA,<o:p></o:p></p>
