Barry, My Pundit-R (uses the ATI IXP200/9100IGP chipset) does not support WOL, which is a PITA. I currently use nvram-wakeup to let it turn off and on on its own, but obviously this does not let you wake it up remotely. I guess one solution (if you have space) is to install a WOL capable NIC, but if the current Heyu solution is working fine, why change it?
