There is no mention of wake-on-LAN in the man page for ifconfig in 7.0. I'd

It has:

In some cases (depending on the NIC and the BIOS) WOL works even without
OS support. It might be worth testing before you do anything else.
I've tried various experiments with the wol command to try to wake up one of
our boxes with no luck. We're using the stock nVidia driver. There is also no

Long story short: Wake-on-LAN requires OS/NIC driver support. The OS puts the
