I want to wake up my machine via wol, but for some reason this does not work. It has a 3Com 3c905c fast ethernet card and runs under 4.2 release. I tried booting MS-DOS with a boot disk, and after switching off wol worked (until the next boot of bsd), so the cause is not a defect of the ethernet card. I even tried switching off (with bsd running) without a proper shutdown (ouch...) to test if somehow the wol capa- bility is shut down on shutdown, without success. I'm thankful for any help.
