  • How to enable wake on lan on Thinkpad Twist?

    I have a Thinkpad Twist purchased because of the presence of the ethernet card.
    Unfortunately I can not turn wake on lan.
    I did several searches and several attempts without success.
    Someone managed to enable wake on lan?
    Thank you.
    (sorry for the English by Google Translate)
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hey there Cello67,
    To enable Wake On Lan on a Thinkpad twist:
    1) You will first need to power down your laptop completely.
    2) Then turn it on, as soon as you turn it on start hitting the enter key to interrupt start up. This will take you to a start up menu.
    3) From here you will need to enter your BIOS.
    4) Move right over to the Config, then press enter on the Network Selection 
    5) The first option you should have is Wake On Lan. You can change this from disabled to either AC Only or AC and Battery.
    After you have done this save your settings, and resume startup. Once the computer has finished booting go to your desktop, and pull out your charm bar by pressing Win Key + C or with a swipe from the right side of your screen in. From here you will:
    1) Enter the Control Panel
    2) Device Manager - > Your Ethernet Card/Adapter
    3) Click the Power Management Tab
    4) Select "Allow this device to wake the computer"
    Hope this helps Cello67!

  • Wake on lan from power OFF

    It appears that Mac's don't provide wake on lan from complete power off. I have no problem powering up my Mac from sleep, but it won't turn on from power off (like every PC I've tried). This is not difficult to do, as every $200 PC on the market w/ WOL does it.
    I have my Mac on a large shared UPS with serveral other computers and network gear, etc.
    There is a linux server which actually communicates with the UPS. During a power failure, that linux box will connect to ever other machine on the network sharing this UPS and tell them to SHUT OFF, not sleep, because hard power failure is emminent. When all remote machines are off, the linux machine shuts off, and the UPS powers off it's outlets.
    On power recovery, the UPS waits until it's batteries are sufficiently recharged, and turns back on, powering up it's protected outlets. All the machines see power come back on, and are set to reboot.
    Here is the problem. If the power comes back on AFTER the remote machines are shut down, but before the linux box turns off, the linux box sees power recovery, and the UPS never shuts off it's protected outlets. Now all the remote machines are off, and won't ever see their power cut off, and then recover, so they don't turn back on.
    The PCs are easy... hit them with a wake-on-lan packet and they reboot from complete power off... but not the trusty Mac because Apple didn't implement that part of the wake-on-lan standard!
    So... I'm faced with abandoning wake on lan for all the machines and building an interface with a big relay to KILL power to all remote machines to power them back on. Isn't this more than just a little silly? Apple... why not just make your machine comply with the standard so that it plays nicely in a mixed environment!
    Providing wake on lan from sleep, and power on with power recovery, but no wake on lan from OFF is just ridiculous.
    I welcome any ideas...
    PowerMac G5 Dual 2.0   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Malcolm,
    If I make it sleep, then I'm forcing it to crash when the power turns off. The idea here is for a graceful shutdown before emminent power failure when the UPS battery runs out.
    The only reason it's getting shut down is that the main power has failed and the UPS battery is running low.
    I agree that with no power they can't interpret packets and react... but that's why proper wake-on-lan implementations keep the NIC powered up to watch for WOL packets.
    Thanks,

  • Using verizon wifi fios router - need to wake on lan mountain lion

    There is a lot of discussion about this issue, but other than using apple routers, I haven't seen a way to get this to work: I want to wake up my local macmini w/ mountain lion from my other macs.  I have the settings set up to do it on the macs, but it is not getting through the network.  Probably has to do with a setting in the router, but I need help to know how to do that.  Thanks.
    Boyd

    If it's useful, here's a write-up on wake on LAN and related topics from a while back, with links to various other documents, tools and mechanisms.
    Various of Apple's wireless devices provide what's known as a sleep proxy for the target system.  That is, the wireless devices mimic "being" the target device, and will wake the target device when there's activity determined to be necessary.
    For the wake-on-LAN stuff, all of the intermediate routers have to support the traffic, and they almost certainly won't...  As an alternative, get a firewall with a VPN server, VPN to that, and have at. 
    If you're particularly inclined, there are various fairly affordable network-connected power strips, or (more expensive) network-connected battery-backed power supplies; remote-managed less-interruptable power supplies.  These can be used for controlling power, once you're connected to the VPN server on your LAN.

  • Wake on Lan not working properly?

    So as far as i'm aware Windows 8 supports wake on lan whilst the device is either in sleep or hibernate (not completely off) and so far it works fine when in sleep mode (no randomly turning on like lots of people have been saying) but nothing happens when in hibernate. Is there any particular reason why this may be?
    Lenovo G780
    Windows 8.1
    Using unified remote (full) to control power options (tried in both administrative and not)
    Qualcomm Atheros AR8162/8166/8168 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.30). Set to recieve packets
    and i think i've made all of the nessasary changes to BIOs and my router (Belkin) to allow WoL (seeing as it works when sleeping)

    Hallo Forumreaders,
    WOL (Wake On Lan) works only through a router when it is capable to forward to broadcast LAN-IP-adres.
    In my consideration only the good old BEFSR41 is capable to forward to the broadcast adres for example 192.168.1.255 (SM: 255.255.255.0)
    Because there is no IP-adres in powerless PC's the "Magic Packet" (which WOL realy is) MUST be send onto your LAN by means of the broadcast-adres.
    Other routers are  NOT able to sumit a adres like 192.168.1.255 in a subnet of 255.255.255.0 because they are NOT allowed to use any broadcast-adres.(they can get trouble by means of a broadcaststorm!!!)
    So do not get rid of that old router you have!!
    More info;
    The "Magic Packet" contains the MAC-adres of your recipient host and wil trigger the powersupply of that PC.
    For Internet WOL, try http://www.dslreports.com/wakeup, submit your IP-adres of your home, your MAC-adres of your PC and klick on "Wake up".
    Looking for an application for on a USB-stick, download the small tool; http://www.depicus.com/wake-on-lan/wake-on-lan-gui.aspx
    Hope I helped,

  • Wake on Lan works on my MacBook Pro, not on my iMac...

    Hello everyone, with all these threads about the problem, I wanted to start a new one to make it clear, with all information you may need in order to help me out.
    I've got a MacBook Pro '15 and an iMac 21.5', both are running (clean install) OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2, both are up to date with the latest updates, both have the same apps, both have the same settings in "system preferences", and of course the same settings in "sharing" options.
    My iMac is connected to my 5GHz network from my Time Capsule while my MacBook Pro use the 2.4GHz network.
    Before going to bed, I leave both my Macs turned on, after 10min they go to sleep automatically. In the morning I can wake up my MacBook Pro from my iPhone or iPad with a screen sharing app.
    The iMac doesn't respond at all. It stays in sleep mode. I can leave my MacBook Pro asleep for a week, it always responds. The iMac responds after a few hours but after 6 or 8 hours it seems to be completely asleep and doesn't respond to anything. If you think it's about the iPhone/iPad's app, when I try to wake the iMac from my MacBook Pro with "Back to my Mac" I have the same results.
    I tried to connect my iMac to the 2.4GHz network: same problem.
    OF COURSE "WAKE ON LAN" is activated in my system preferences.
    I made a reset of the PRAM, the cache and the SMC on my iMac: same problem.
    I type sudo periodic daily weekly monthly in the terminal and sudo dscacheutil -flushcache: same problem.
    I tried everything I may have found in the forums or on this Support from people having the same issue: same problem.
    I even tried to set the iMac with the same sleep mode as my MacBook Pro: same problem.
    PLEASE HELP ME!

    I understand that, but if your router is not an Apple AirPort Base Station then it introduces an element of uncertainty. Apple has implemented many changes related to wireless networking recently.
    You are complicating matters by changing networkoversleep:
    networkoversleep - this setting affects how OS X networking presents shared network services during system sleep. This setting is not used by all platforms; changing its value is unsupported.
    Solving problems like this requires that you simplify your network environment and eliminate its unknowns. Using third party routers and making unsupported changes runs counter to simplification.
    The iMac stays connected to the Time Capsule about 6 hours during sleep. Then it dissapears...
    The iMac wakes periodically (every few hours) to inform your router of its network presence for Wake on LAN demands. Try changing your router's DHCP lease period to something longer than a few hours. For a home environment, a few days is more appropriate. This may not solve the problem, but it is better than making unsupported changes to your system.

  • HP Color LaserJet CM1312nfi MFP Mystery Wake on LAN

    The printer wakes unexpectedly, and unpredictably on the network. I cannot determine what, if anything, is waking it. The printer wakes and goes into calibration without any users on the network and without any print jobs. Mystery wake on LAN.

    The HP drivers won't load on my 10.10.x (10.10.1 thru 10.10.4) OSX macbook pro.  The install says the version of OSX isn't supported even thought I've tried 1.5.0 dmg file which is for 10.7 and greater.  I did the math and I believe 10.10.x is greater than any version of 10.7.  I also tried HP Easy Scan and it doesn't even see my scanner.  Printing works fine, but I scan a lot of paper.  Also, I've found that the Mac OSX version of the HP software (when it still worked) creates obscenely large PDF files.  I can get around this by opening Adobe Acrobat Pro and re-saving the file as a reduced file size with the same name.  I can take a 25 MB file HP creates and get it down to about 300KB or so.  I found a way around all this but you won't like it.  I've loaded Parallels (installed windows 7 ultimate 64 bit) and installed the windows client in my parallels image.  The windows client works fine.  Not a solution I prefer, but this is an HP issue not an apple issue .... HP hasn't put out a driver for this printer in the better part of 3.5 years.  Lastly, I'm not hooking up a USB cable to my printer/fax/scanner .... what's the point of having a dhcp network capable printer if I have to hard wire to a PC? I've used HP printers since the mid-'90s, but I guess it's time to find a company that supports OSX.

  • T500 Wake on Lan (wireless) does not work.

    Hi, 
    I set up T500 (Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit) for wake on lan, 
    1) Enable Bios WOL
    2) Enable WOL in power manegement tab of Intel WiFi Link 5300 AGN property in device manager.
    But WOL does not work. Sending magic packet from a PC in the same WiFi segment does not wake up sleeped T500.
    Are there any setting for WOL in lenovo tools ?
    Does anybody use WOL(WiFI) on T500?
    Thanks, 

    Is the T500:
    Associated with an access point at the time it is put into standby/sleep mode?
    Connected to AC power for the whole time it is in standby/sleep mode (in otherwords the whole time it is in a low power state) when you are attempting to use WoWLAN?
    If not, that may be at least part of your problem, as it is a known limitation on WoWLAN operation.
    You also need to have the laptop "set up" to the master workstation, and the WLAN configured to handle braodcast wireless frame, but I am presuming you have already done that side of things.
    Cheers,

  • SG200 how to configure Wake on LAN across subnets

    How can I configure  to support WOL on a SG200 (8 Ports) to support Wake On Lan (Magic Packets) from a different IP Subnet or other SG200 Switch. It seems not to support Directed-Broadcasts.

    I checked out the link and tested the changes. Unfortunately, the WOL still won't work. In the link you attached, it states that you cannot turn on a computer that is off. Does that mean one that is off such as unplugged or in shutdown? Also, one of the steps to configure the firewall access rules says to block all outbound connections for all services. That doesn't make any sense to me, but I might be wrong. I also noticed that the link was for another router. I don't know if that makes a difference. I also read somewhere in the forums that someone else is having a similar problem, saying that Port Forwarding still isn't working in the latest firmware. This whole problem is strange because it used to work all the time on my old router with Port Forwarding, but on this one it won't work at all.

  • Wake on LAN across subnets

    Is there a way to get Zenwork's wake-on-lan feature to work across subnets?
    I am not a LAN administrator so pardon any ignorance you see in my
    question.
    Zenwork's wake-on-lan function won't work on our LAN because our switches
    are set to not allow forwarding of subnet-oriented broadcasts, which is a
    generic requirment for zenworks wake-on-lan function to work. Our security
    folks say enabling this on the switches is not an option because it
    introduce a security vulnerbility. I find it strange that there wouldn't
    be a solution for this by Novell/Zenworks considering that multiple
    subnets, switches, and security considerations are usually a component of
    all networks which zenworks is specifically targeted for in the first
    place.
    Thanks

    Exactly, and this is the best choice. Make "Replication Servers" in each subnet, is very simple. U can use a Windows machine or SuSE, both without installing zenworks. Only registering them as servers satellites. You must install the agent (logically, hehe).

  • Satellite C660 - how to enable and Use WAKE ON LAN?

    Hi All,
    I previously posted asking about using Wake on Wireless LAN and was very helpfully advised that this was not possible, so I have started to explore the Wake ON LAN option.
    I have a Toshiba C660 PSC0LE-00500JEN and have enabled Wake ON LAN on the BIOS, and have connected a LAN cable between my wireless router and the laptop, both of which recognise each other so the cable seems ok.
    However, whether I use a WAKE ON LAN app on my android, or I use an online "wake on lan via browser" site, the laptop still remains asleep.
    Can anyone advise?
    Thanks
    James

    Hi
    The Wake Up on Lan option would work if you would send an Magic Packet to the remote machine (notebook).
    I have no experience using the Android app who knows if it function properly
    Try other method. For example using an software like Wake on Lan for Windows Graphical User Interface (GUI)
    Google for that to download this software.
    Furthermore go to device manager -> LAN card -> Properties -> Advanced tab and check here if the WOL is enabled too

  • Wake on lan - I can't get it to work

    Sorry for the nubie here.
    I am unable to wake my new iMac from my Macbook using WakeOnLand. The MB is using wifi and the others are using ethernet.
    Also, I am unable to see a G4 running 10.4.11.
    The MB and iMac are running 10.6.2. No firewalls.
    I have a Dlink router and know how to get into its admin page but really am afraid to change its configurations due to lack of knowledge.
    Any help appreciated.
    Lewis

    no. wake on lan works over ethernet only. it does not matter what router you use. but SNow leopard has a new feature "wake on demand" that does work over wireless. but for that you need a very recent apple router (TC or AEBS) and and a very recent computer.

  • Can't get wake on lan to work on Hp n40l microserver

    Hello
    I installed arch on my HP proliant microserver and I can not get Wake on lan to work. I tested my device with ethtool and it supports and is enabled for WOL with g value set for both.
    But whenever I power it off by systemctl poweroff I can no longer see it as a connected device to my router
    Before installing arch I tried ubuntu for testing the hardware quickly and I got wake on lan working there. I can not figure out what might be the issue here. Wake on lan is enabled in the BIOS.
    Any help would be appreciated
    Cheers

    As I see in the Archwiki , the wol package would also need the IP address ( though not necessary ) along with the mac address of the server.
    I fear that the nic on the server does not obtain an ip in shutdown state, since I can't see it in my attached devices in the router settings( I could be very wrong ! )
    Tried using wol on a laptop running arch, but with no luck.
    I have seen this workaround in several places
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … bug/981461
    I even tried creating a similar script which would first do
    ip link set dev enp2s0 down
    systemctl poweroff
    but that did not work either.
    Cheers

  • Wake on Lan (works, but not always)

    Iam trying to get Wak on Lan working on my iMac. It works, but not always. When I put my mac to sleep en send the magic package, my mac turns back on. But when my mac turns to sleep and I wait a few hours (the next morning), my Mac doesn't respond to the same magic packag. When I wake up the Mac by hand, and put it back to sleep again, the magic package works again en turns the mac on.
    It almost looks like the mac goes into a deeper sleep mode after a few hours. Does anyone knows what could ben the reazon.

    mmm, It seems like my mac doesn't always turns to sleep mode. Most of the time it only turns off the screen (solid light). My energy settings are 10 minutes for the screen and 15 minutes for the mac. But after turning of the screen it never turns to sleepmode. Ecxept when I put it to sleep manualy.
    Strange thing is: when the screen is turned of, shouldn't I be able to get tot my files... (I can't actualy).

  • Wake on LAN/Keyboard wake for a K8N Neo Platinum - how do I use this?

    I've got a K8N Neo Platinum motherboard that I am using in my home theater PC and I was hoping to enable either the wake on lan or keyboard wake functions so that they could be controlled via a remote control. For now disregard what the overall outcome I want to achieve is... what I want to know is if enabling the WOL and/or keyboard wake function will allow me to turn on the PC from a completely powered down state as opposed to just powering up from a sleep/hybernation mode. I have read people with other motherboards have been able to power up by using their keyboard, mouse or even WOL when the computer is totally shut down. I'm trying to avoid leaving the PC in a sleep/hybernation mode due to electricity usage. Does this motherboard have the ability to power up when the whole system is shut down?
    Also, what key on the keyboard is used to wake up the computer? The manual and bios instructions say nothing about what key needs to be pressed to wake it up.

    I know you can set various wake options in the bios. Check there!
    You can wake up the computer by wriggling the mouse or pressing any key, if the options are enabled in the bios.
    Hope this helps
