I am using the Wake on LAN module on the Crestron Yahoo group. I can see from toolbox that I am sending the magic packet to the PC.

From my earlier thread and reading the suggestions I just put the PC to sleep. I can wake the PC from another PC using a magic packet sender and I can wake using an app on my phone. My problem is that Crestron won't wake the PC.

Is anyone using the module succesfully? I just need to know if I am missing something?

Have you tried posting your question on the Yahoo Group?

I would expect either the module's author, or someone else who has used it, more likely to be there than on RC - not that there's anything wrong with being on RC :-)

Usually you have to go into BIOS settings of the computer and configure it to wake on lan.  The procedure is different for each motherboard.

I usually use a wake on lan app to test the computer before trying to make it work with a control system.

Considering he says he can wake on LAN from another PC and wake from an app, I'd say the bios settings are probably correct.
