FYI: You can also manually set it back to 00:00:00:00:00:00 and SB will
learn it again when you connect to SC the next time.

Not sure why you wouldn't see the "Waking Squeezecenter" message, but
my guess is that the message can get overwritten by "Connecting to
Squeezecenter" quickly in some cases, so that you would not see it.

I can see why support would have asked you to upgrade to the latest SC
and firmware as the changelog mentions changes regarding WOL, but these
changes are not related to the issue you are seeing. One change was for
Transporter only and the other was to allow manual setting of the WOL
mac address.

Anyhow, your problem isn't strictly WOL, but when you enable WOL on
your PC it also makes your PC not being able to go to sleep again.

You mentioned that you switched to the internal network card - did you
check if it let you change what will wake your PC? As others suggested
it will only work properly if the network card used allows you to set
it to only wake on magic packets, but not on _any_ traffic.

Cheers
Felix
