Joel,
For "wake on LAN" to work the network adapters on each end of the LAN or
WAN connection (wired or wireless) have to be set to send and receive
"wake on LAN" packets. If the "powered off" machine is to be awakened
then the network adapter that controls it has to be set to receive a
wake on LAN packet AND also to allow the network adapter to then power
on the machine. Once the network adapter is set then any machine on the
LAN that can send a magic packet can also power on the machine.
Likewise the machine that is waking up the "powered off" machine also
has to have it's network adapter enabled for wake on LAN and set to send
the wake on LAN "magic packet" to wake up properly configured machines.
You didn't specify what OS you are using but I'll assume it's some sort
of Windows. To set wake on LAN, go to control panel > network and
sharing center. There you should find a link on the left side that says
"change adapter settings". Click on "change adapter settings" and all
your wired and wireless "network connections" should appear. Then right
click on the wireless or wired "network connection" that you are using
for your LAN on that specific machine and select properties from the
menu. This will pull up an applet that lists your exact network adapter
by manufacturer at the top and a configure button just below. (Do not
mess with your TCP/IP settings further down) Select the configure
button, and yet another applet will appear. At the top of that applet
are several tabs. Under the "advanced" tab ensure "wake on magic
packet" and "wake on pattern match" are both enabled. These two are at
the bottom of the options list and you may have to scroll down to find
them. Then under the power management tab ensure "allow this device to
wake the computer" is check marked and under that select "only allow
magic packet to wake the computer" if so desired. Then click ok. This
configuration will need to be done on the appropriate network adapter
for all the machines you want to work with wake on LAN.
That should get your hardware on both machines in a state where they
will work for wake on LAN operations and wake on LAN software. Now if
there is a configuration issue or bug in the remote access software...
sorry but I can't help with that.
Good luck.

Dear Elecraft,
With KPA1500 s/n 400, the serial connected Utility program can remotely
power the amp up and down, however, the LAN connected Remote program can't
seem to (arguably more important).
In either Local Connect or Host Connect modes, it says "Power Button is
Disabled because Wake on Lan is Disabled". The host connect mode says Wake
on Lan (WON) will take some seconds to awake, but it doesn't.
Does anyone know how to enable WON??
Thanks much!
