The problem i've realised may be with the fact that in standby the
wireless card is actually powered down. I'll have a play around with it
all and see how I get on.
I know a lot of people don't like the double hop but i've managed to
set my network up well enough that I can play flac on

and stream music to my laptop when traveling, at hotels and when i'm
visiting friends, so it's a very cool feature.
How did you do this? I could never get it to work over the internet!

It was a router thing, most consumer routers don't support this no
matter what you do.
The old way off doing this was to portforward port 7 or 9 to the
routers broadcast address example
Hi,
Is it possible to allow a SB to bring my computer out of standby? I
leave my computer on a lot just because I might put some music on, and
would obviously then save a lot of power if I could just leave it in
standby and have the SB wake it up when I wanted to use it.
i'm running 2 SB3's
the SB3's do WOL wake on lan per default when you press the power
button.
Search wake on or wol on this forum.
The hard part can be to configure your pc/mac/'nix box to use it, and
figure if your network card etc supports it.
Sadly I've never heard of an wifi card thats support wol ? maybe from
Gibbo,just thinking aloud here...go in to your PC's bios
setup(usually delete) key when your computer boots up.select WOL option
and then save (F10). Now i'm wondering IF you use the Alarm function on
the SB will it wake up both ?.worth a try!.
cheers
