GA-X58A-UD3R Wake on LAN/WAN issues

[Christiebunny]

Has anyone had success with getting the UD3R waking over the net at all?

I can't find out what to set in BIOS or in win7's device manager, to get it to wake up from sleep mode, or especially shutdown, successfully.

Can anyone give me a hand, please?

From what I can see in the manual this motherboard doesn't support "wake from LAN" 

[Christiebunny]

it does -- there's a wake from shutdown option in the bios, and wake fro mlan options in windows' device manager....  i just don't know how to configure them right, apparently.

I don't know about the Windows Device Manager, I wasn't looking there only the motherboard BIOS.Sorry I guess I must have missed the wake from shutdown option there then.

Well I have just checked again after what you said and I cannot find any Wake on LAN option in the manual. The pages 57 & 58 cover this area but it is not there.

What revision motherboard do you have?

I've got revision 1.0 - and the wake on LAN stuff appears to be under power options

Best I can tell, everything's setup right exept for two things -- the NIC seems to be turning off once I go into S3 sleep, and the device/state mappings are odd:

Under device manager -> details -> power state:

Power state mappings:
S0 -> D0
S1 -> Unspecified
S2 -> Unspecified
S3 -> D3
S4 -> D3
S5 -> D3


I've got "Shutdown Wake on LAN", "Wake on Magic Packet" and "Wake on Pattern Match" all enabled in device manager, and "PME Event Wakeup",  and "Wake on Alarm" both enabled in BIOS  (I've tried it with "wake on pattern match" off, as well)

Additionally, I've got "EuP support" off -- which proves WOL's available, even if it doesn't explicitly state it in BIOS:

EuP Support
Determines whether to let the system consume less than 1W power in S5 (shutdown) state. (Default: Disabled)
Note: When this item is set to Enabled, the following four functions will become unavailable:
PME event wake up, power on by mouse, power on by keyboard, and wake on LAN.

Yes I read that bit in the manual but couldn't find any relative section on how to enable WOL.(it wouldn't be the first time a manual has had a mistake in it )
I would suggest contacting GTS and asking them how you go about enabling it.

Hello,

What's new about WOL issue ?

Does Gigabyte say anything ? BIOS revision ?

Thanks for anyone responding !

Hi

I am not sure what you are after really but you will need to enable the "Magic Packet" in the BIOS.
