    Has anyone been able to successfully boot a m570ru using Wake On Lan?
    I cant seem to make it work for mine!

    I have not found any such option in the BIOS (which actually has VERY FEW options *1.00.11*).

    The magic packet I send works just fine on my desktop with an intel 10/100 onboard card (I had to enable WoL in the card properties).

    Please let me know if you know how to make it work.

    Are you trying to send it - the magic packet - to the NP5790 by wire, or wirelessly?

    Through wired ethernet obviously.
    I simply can't find where to enable it. Did anyone successfully wake their computer using wake on lan? (not just directed packets using M$ windows wake from sleep, but the actual magic packet that can wake from Hib and power off)
