ITGURU Posted October 30, 2018 Posted October 30, 2018 Hi, I have a strange WOL issue. If i use the WOL utility to shut down a computer, or shut it down by using shutdown /s from the command line the pc will shutdown and NIC still be active (flashing on both NIC and network switch). Via both of these methods I can then wake up the PC without any issue., However, if i shut down the PC using START, Shutdown, which is what would happen with daily use, the switch port goes out and the PC will NOT wake on LAN. Whats the difference, and can anyone help/advise? Thanks.
newpersn Posted October 30, 2018 Posted October 30, 2018 That would be fast start up. Try disabling it. I’ve had problems with software that’s normally install on start up and WoL. https://www.windowscentral.com/how-disable-windows-10-fast-startup

Thanks will give that a try.

If you got SSD in your computers there’s very little difference I feel. Try looking here for the gp settings. https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/84tpz4/psa_trouble_with_gpo_applying_at_startup_or/
ass17 Posted October 31, 2018 Posted October 31, 2018 If you disable Hibernation (CMD —> powercfg -h off) and make sure you disable deep sleep control like dell use.
