Windows 10: How do I keep Windows 10 from waking my PC from sleep? (LAN)

Put my computer to sleep tonight and noticed after about 10 seconds it popped back onto my login screen.

Ran powercfg -lastwake and found it was my ethernet adapters.

Now online the tutorials are all showing different buttons than what I have... For what i'm seeing online, there's a simple checkbox for letting the Lan adapter wake your PC or not, I've got... more.

So, do I uncheck all of them to make sure the lan adapter cannot wake my PC from sleep?

Thanks!

Windows keeps waking up with the Realtek GBE Family Controller only allow magic packet... ticked

Just to be safe, the alternative for what exactly? I have read the article and it seems to describe how to configure a PC in order to wake up. That's not my issue.

There is some clarification: I want my PC to wake up
from a magic packet only, not from any event. According to the win log, the ethernet controller keeps waking up my PC randomly, while is set up to act differently.

 

Windows 10 PC waking itself

My windows 10 pc is waking itself up in the middle of the night. It's not due to wake-on-lan, and wake timers are disabled in power options. Event viewer shows the wake source as "Unknown". What's causing it and how do I turn it off?

 

Hello Woohah, *Smile

Unchecking the "Wake on" options should stop that network adapter from waking the PC.

 

Maybe it`s because you installed the Asus Network software and driver from the motherboard CD ? If you just let windows update do it, or just grab the Intel drivers off the net and install them, it will look like this.

I had a real hard time with the Intel network software/driver on the Asus motherboard cd, it kept ruining a fresh Windows 10 install and I would have to reinstall, I have no idea why.

 

But I just got the latest NIC software from Asus and now it looks just like yours and works fine.

Strange the interface looks slightly different as the driver and dates are the same, Asus must add something as their dates and version numbers are different on their site.
