I've a different experience with nforce board. No problem with a very
standard A7N8X-E (with the 10/100 FE nvidia port).

For WOL to work, you must enable it nearly everywhere:
- Bios (often "permit pci device to wake up" option)
- Driver (ethtool on linux or driver properties in windows)
- ACPI (on linux you have to play with /proc/acpi/wakeup file)

Those options depends on the hardware (motherboard, network chip), on
the software (os, driver, etc). Not an easy thing anyway, but rather
reliable indeed.
