As far as I can tell the WOL magic packet is a broadcast - you did not
disable this by implementing some firewall setting or just disabling
routing/bridging between the interfaces? Or if you left the NIC on it
could choose to send the packet using the wrong interface, i.e. tha
packet never makes it to the Linksys box...

Just guessing here - having played with it al night I guess you have
been through all combinations of the above ;-)
