so i wanted to use WOL to wake my pc automatically when i get home.

and that part works.

but now its virtually impossible to get it to sleep.

something wakes the system just moments after putting to sleep.

"powercfg -lastwake" just tells me its woking by the Intel Ethernet Adapter

 

how can i find out who sending the WOL package or what else might be triggering it?

I had my nic set for wake on lan and had the same issue of it constantly turning on and azure was also sending them to me as well. So I just gave up on the wake on lan.
