Hello,

I have a question on wake-on-lan. When my PC is completely turned off,
everything works fine, the computer wakes on the 'magic packet', so
everything should be configured correctly.
But when the PC is just suspended (data remains in memory), the magic
packet does not seem to wake it up. Do I have to enable this exclusively
somewhere in windows? Is it possible at all? I'm using Win XP SP1.

Finally got it working, with kind help from comp.os.ms-windows.networking.misc newsgroup.
There was a greyed-out option in the NIC driver settings which blocked this.
