Are they Intel NICs? If it is, does it have the WOL setting "Wake on Magic Packet from Power Off" in advanced properties on the NIC?
http://www.ephingadmin.com/a-configmgr-admins-guide-to-wol-magic-part-two/ If not, and if it's an Intel NIC, you might want to try the registry hack I have posted at that link to enable it. Here's the script I've run to enable it on hundreds of Dell computers: $Index = $null $query = "select * from Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration Where IPEnabled = 'True'" Get-WmiObject -Query $query | ForEach-Object { $Index = $_.Index if ($Index.Length -ne 4) { do { $Index = "0$Index" } while ($Index.Length -lt 4) } Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\$Index" -Name "EnablePME" -Value "1" -Type "String" -Force } On Mon, Nov 21, 2016 at 3:24 PM Murray, Mike <mmur...@csuchico.edu> wrote: > No, that’s the problem.
