cuv4x-d(ls) - WOL
Hello all,
I want to share my findings with you all. I have a cuv4x-dls ( dual processor ) with a network on board. I tried to use the WOL feature and failed to do so. after setting the WOL option in the bios the machine never "woke" up using the magic packet. I tried to get support from asus, but they told me to update my bios to the latest one (1016) although I had it and I told them so. since then every mail was ignored. so, I tried to "goggle" this problem, and I found many sites, one of them explicitly mention that the WOL feature doesn't work with the internal nic card. I found this very bizarre, because the Intel chip does sopport the WOL feature. So I headed to Intel site, checked updates to this chip, and find a configuration tool that can manipulate the features for this chip. I downloaded this tool, and gave it a shot, and believe it or not the WOL mode/option on this chip is shipped from asus in disable mode. ( the WOL in the bios is only for the bios ! ) I change this mode to enable, and wham the machine came to live from a magic packet. I don't know if this problem and solution were posted here in the past or not. but I thought of posting it, it took me lots of month to find the solution. See you all, Roye A |

Hi Roye
Thank you very much for your addressing this topic and for your pieces of advice. As you can read, I independently posted a like message on about the same time. Could you give more informationa about that configuration tool which you write about? Is it Intel Boot Agent? If yes, I noticed that it only works in DOS mode (not in cmd shell) and WXP hasn't it, isn't it? So how did you actually flashed your NIC card? thank you Maurizio So I headed to Intel site, checked updates to this chip, and find a configuration tool that can manipulate the features for this chip. |
