FWIW;
I have two 7.0-RELEASE boxes with single (on board) and dual
(pro/1000) em NICs. WOL works fine on both.
The link light must be on after FreeBSD shuts down for WOL to work.
You might try using the latest proboot.exe from Intel which allows you
to update the NIC firmware and change its settings. There might be
FreeBSD sysctl knobs that might help as well.
Thanks for the pointer. I tried the proboot.exe utilities, but the must run
in a "dos" environment -- not under an XP command window.
Is there an easier way? I'm not sure how I'm going to get my machine booted
into DOS -- maybe I can find an 8-track player to provide background music
while I work.
THanks. Kent
