Hello!
I have been trying to get Wake on Lan to work on my G46VW.
I've read on different forums, including this one, that it is possible.
I'm running into a couple of strange problems, from which the biggest problem is that... it doesn't work.
Things I've done so far:I've port forwarded UDP port 9 in my router to my G46.
I've allowed UDP port 9 in my windows firewall + my Symantec Endpoint Protection firewall settings.
For testing I've disabled my WiFi card so it always connects using the LAN.
I've always got the laptop connected with the AC adapter.
And here is a big picture with the different settings I've set:
Things I've achieved:It now works from sleep only. But I know it should be possible to work from a complete shut down.
Weird things that happened:Sometimes after going to sleep or hibernate mode (and trying to send packet without any respond), all the settings in the Power Management Tab (first image) have been unchecked again.
The only thing I can think of is upgrading my BIOS version if there is even an update available for it?
The version I currently have is 210.
Does anybody else have any idea what I might be doing wrong?
Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.
