The server is HP microserver N36L with clear OS 6 beta ( redhat Linux )

WOL is enabled in bios it works for my daily and weekly use , the
problem only occurs after a long time away .

The router is an old linksys wrt54L with tomato firmware there are some
simple Netgear switches in use ( blue small officestuff no settings or
advanced features ) .

Basically it's Internet to router , router to switches then all
computers server and desktop are wired two squeezeboxes are wired.

It's one network with one subnet as simple as you can have it .

Server , computer and squeezeboxes have static network adresses outside
of the routers DCHP pool .
Combined with switches that means that the desktop and the server can
comunicate even when the router is down .

That's why I suspect the NIC in the server as I use "etherwake" on my
desktop ( the desktop is linux mint )that basically is wired to the
server and send a magic package aimed at the correct mac for th server
NIC ?

Alsomthe tomato router software has a feature where can manually input
the correct mac and WOL stuff, this does not work either

I may try to experiment with the server if it's NIC forgots it supposed
to listen for WOL after prolonged off .

I may start there pulling the power cable out of the server for a bit
longer time .
