Soooooo... any one who has managed to get WoL (Wake on LAN) to work and mind helping me out? 

 

So, this is where I am:

I can receive packets (Port 9)! However, even though I can get them it still does not turn on my PC. Got it so I CAN use WoL on my motherboard but still nothing. 

 

Motherboard is MSI G45-Gaming Z97. If anyone has experienced this please feel free to tell me  :D

 

Thanks in advance! - All ideas welcome. 

 

HOW I FIXED:

 

All it was, in Device Manager I had to go to my Network Adapter > Right Click > Advanced Settings > Shutdown and Wakeup > Enabled

You have to enable the feature in the bios. The bios is what uses WOL, not the OS.

My native language is C++
