Greetings and thanks; does your setup support wake-on-lan (WOL) #77

Hi, and greetings from Athens.

I've had trouble with my (similar) setup as of Ventura 13.5 - IntelMausi stopped responding to WOL packets (and its LEDs are off when sleeping).

Tried your EFI (ACPI and all), but without success, even after upgrading to F9 BIOS.

Must say that your write-up was very helpful, esp. in terms of AppleVTD (to which I was oblivious), but also overall - excellent job, thanks!

Quick question: does your rig wake with ethernet WOL packets?

TIA

Glad you enjoyed the write-up. I honestly don't know if WOL is working as I haven't tried it. I can test it later today and get back to you. Does WOL work with the other ethernet port. I'll try both and let you know either way.

Best

Thanks for your response. I've tried both en ports on the motherboard, to no avail. Bought an RTL8111-based PCIe adapter today, which is WOL-compliant, but that too doesn't work.

Suspect something related to Ventura 13.5 is the culprit, but would appreciate if you could please check - if it works in your case, than I'll just clone your setup to the letter (not just the ACPI tables and general advice).

Once again, thanks!

BTW - a quick&dirty check (without actually trying to figure out how to send a WOL magic packet) is as follows: just attach an active ethernet cable ― this will light-up the LEDs on the port. When the machine sleeps, do the LEDs turn off (as in my case) or do they remain ON, indicating polling the interface?

Duh!

Found out that in the F9 BIOS screen, there is a separate "NIC configuration" button individually under each en device, and one has to apply the "Wake-on-LAN enable" setting there, for a total of four (!) setting changes.

Sure enough, that fixed the issue ;-)

I apologize for taking so much of your time. Thanks for responding!

With greetings from Athens,

Glad to hear you figured it out. Appreciate you posting the solution.

Oddly I have one port working and the other not. I haven't checked my BIOS yet for the settings you mentioned above. It's not urgent for me but if I need it I now know how to fix.

Thanks and the best.
