Can't Wake Remote PC From Windows 7

Hi,

I have a computer running Windows 7 configured for WOL. I can wake this particular computer (desktop) from other computers (Running Windows XP), but not from my laptop which runs windows 7. I have tried multiple utilities and both command line and GUI (all of which work in XP).

What should I be looking for? I need to get this working from Windows 7 as the notebook is my work machine and I frequently need data off of my home PC.

Thanks!

EDIT: Yes firewall is turned off on the machine that I am sending the magic packet from.

Anyone?? Can't figure this out.

Sorry to revive a dead thread but I got WOL working from another Windows 7 PC on my LAN. Here's the solution to that:

I had the same problem (sorry for my english)

I had try the mc-wol.exe program (from matcode.com)
and try the wolcmd.exe program (from depicus)
and not work when de sender computer have Vista Home Premium 32 bit.

Then I try use the same programs but using also de IP broadcast adress.

I mean, trying to wake the 192.168.0.1 pc I use:

mc-wol xx:xx:xx:xx:xx /a 192.168.0.*255* and It's works!!!

also try

wolcmd xxxxxxxxxx 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0 and also works!!!

(obviously the xx:xx:xx:xx:xx mean the real MAC adress)

From other computers with other Operating System I not need to use de
IP, but from my Vista Home Premium only with the broadcast IP works
fine.

I hopefull this post help you

Anyone have an idea what I could do to get it working from outside the network?
