Gordon. Pleased to hear that you are more successful with WoWlan than I am. I find that I can wake the Mac wirelessly if it has been sleeping for a short while (possibly less than one hour), but not longer. My assumption is that somehow the router and the Mac are getting disassociated through some sort of time out. I can't yet figure out if this is the work of the Mac or the router. I'm using WPA Personal security, which might have something to do with it. -- shawje ------------------------------------------------------------------------ shawje's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37017 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48521 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
