+===== Wake on LAN Notes and Troubleshooting =====
 For Wake On LAN to work on your client device, it must be configured to respond to magic packets, both in firmware and in software.  Enabling the firmware option causes the device's Ethernet chip to remain powered on (usually at a low state, like 10 Mbps) even when the device is sleeping or off. This makes it able to listen for magic packets.  Enabling the software option allows the device to wake up or power on when that packet is received.
