I'm pretty sure that the BIOS settings are correct; wakeup on PHY activity seems to work (although it's quite pointless). > Also note that some mainboard do not support WOL after power loss (like my Asus P5K-E). > An important step is how do you put the PC to sleep. > Under Windows it is the NIC settings in Device Manager.

I've just built myself an USB stick with Windows XP and I'll try the network settings there. I've heard rumors that the XP driver does something regarding WOL which the Linux driver doesn't, so I'll try that. Is there a way to compare the persistent settings afterwards, i.e. by comparing lspci -xxxx ?
