When I boot into Debian Linux (v7 x64) on another disk, WOL works. With FreeBSD, I cannot wake the host by sending a WOL packet from all computers I've tried. This MicroServer N40L only has the onboard Broadcom (bge) NIC installed. I've tried enabling WOL via 'ipconfig'; # ifconfig bge0 wol wol_ucast wol_mcast After a power cycle, the verbose from ipconfig doesn't provide any indication (WOL_MAGIC) that it's enabled or supported. I've tried loading the NIC driver as a start up module in the loader.conf; if_bge_load="YES" After a power cycle, still no go. I even tried loading known working driver (From FreeNAS forum post, see link below) to correct this; http://forums.nas4free.org/viewtopic.php?f=69&t=2974 Though 'if_bge.ko' didn't work as well.
