-WOL settings in the PC's operating system also must be enabled.  See [[https://www.howtogeek.com/70374/how-to-geek-explains-what-is-wake-on-lan-and-how-do-i-enable-it/|here]] for details. WOL functions generally assume a client PC/device starts out from an off state.  If your device is in a suspend or sleep state, it may not recognize the wake signal and therefore may not wake as expected.  Details for Windows can be found [[https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/deployment/wake-on-lan-feature|here]].+WOL settings in the PC's operating system also must be enabled.  See [[https://www.howtogeek.com/70374/how-to-geek-explains-what-is-wake-on-lan-and-how-do-i-enable-it/|here]] for details.
