    WOL works.. But after 20 minutes it will not WOL


    HI all,


    I built my pc, Its a Evga 780i mb. I can put the pc into sleep (bios is set to S1 and S3. WOL is soft on). But after the pc is in sleep for 20 or more minutes the computer will not wake up from lan. I do see the yellow light on the NIC on the MB the whole time.

    So any idea why it will work up to 15 minutes the decides not to

    this is very frustrating

    Hello,

    See if this helps
    » Wake on LAN is not working in Windows 7 — Found the solution Techibee.com

    Also, what do you have the PC plugged into?

    Thank you for your response.

    I have the Evga MB 780i and the drivers for the network are nvidia, so there don't seem to have the same setting at all as in this link.
