By "restart" I mean reboot a running server.  I didn't think a "Reboot
to SqueezeNetwork" option made much sense, so I didn't include it.

Re not getting WOL to work on your computer:

Have you set your BIOS to wake up on pci events?  There ought to be an
option to select this in your BIOS setup under the power management
section.

Have you set the WOL properties of the network adapter using the
windows device manager? In the properties for your network adapter,
select the "Power Management" tab and make sure the following entries
are checked:

[X] Allow this device to bring the computer out of standby.  
[X] Only allow management stations to bring the computer out of
standby.

If your machine/nic supports WOL, then it ought to work like this:

Do a "Shutdown to Squeeze Network" and let the player switch to SN and
let the server turn itself off.  Play some content from SN.  Then,
using the remote, navigate to "Connect to SqueezeCenter".  The player
will sign off from SN and try to connect to you (turned off) server. 
When it gives up after a few seconds, press the power button on the
remote.  That should send a WOL packet and wake up your server.  At
least that's how it works for me with my server & Transporter & SB3.
