Laptop updated to 1809. Can't get WOL to send out...

Not sure the topic is exactly accurate. Here's the story:

• Have been successful sending WOL to 2 other PCs in the house
• Had problems with laptop and sent to HP. They upgraded it to 1809
• Now when I send WOL packets the other PCs will not wake up

Given that it was working fine on those PCs before, and the noted changes are to the PC sending the packet, I'm assuming that my sending PC needs something configured.

My searches on WOL only find stuff about setting it up on the remote PC so it will wake up.

Any suggestions about why my sending PC is not sending?

 

Marvell Yukon 88e8056 ethernet WOL not working since upgrading to Windows 10

Hi Kalpana,

Thank you for you quick reply. I am not sure that article is of use as the network connectivity is working perfectly apart from the WOL function. i will follow step 6 just to be 100% sure but this seems to be a Windows 10/ Driver issue. As the Windows official
driver does not resolve this problem, is there anything else you can suggest or do?

 

WOL Stopped Working

My wife has a Packard Bell TJ68 laptop previously running Windows 7. I have a NAS which normally sleeps and the laptop send WOL packets to wake up the NAS when a user logs on.

When I upgraded to Windows 10 the sending of the WOL packets no longer works. It makes no difference whether I connect up a wired connection or use the wireless. I have tried from the commandline (Wolcmd) and various utilities.

I know WOL is working because a Linux Netbook wakes the NAS successfully as does my Windows 7 desktop.

It then dawned on me that maybe the identical problem with my sons Windows 8 HP laptop, which I had put down to different hardware (and he's had to live with) is actually related to Windows 8/10 not the hardware.

I've had windows update look for drivers but the fact that wired or wireless, two machines, neither work says that it's not drivers.

If I can't find a solution I'll have to go back to Windows 7. Just to be clear this is NOT a problem using WOL to wake up the laptop, this is the laptop failing to send WOL packets after upgrading to Windows 10.
