Hi, I'm trying to get wake-on-lan working on a dual-boot (FreeBSD 7-stable/XP) machine & am having a problem. I am using an eMachines MB with a Intel PRO/1000 NIC. I enabled WOL using the Intel utility. Under XP, WOL is just fine. Works as expected. Under FreeBSD, after "halt -p" the HUB LED comes on (low-speed) indicating NIC power, but the machine doesn't respond to WOL requests. However, if I remove the power cord from the machine for a while, it will restart with WOL. I'm running 7-stable. I don't have any information about previous versions. Thanks for the input. Kent
