Re: Wale on LAN

on second thought... i don't think the machine even supports wol. enter the
system bios and look under the power management options to see if it is
there... you will probably just see 'after power is restored stay off / turn
on / last state." but you might also see settings for wake up on phone or
lan... i can't recall for certain and a quick look at the manual left this a
question mark... i seem to recall a power on time that you can set in the
bios... never found a need for that one.
