To enable Wake-On-Lan (WOL) on your hda:HDA
1. Open a terminal and execute <code>su</code> to get root accessEnable WOL in the BIOS
2. Boot Fedora. Open a terminal and execute <code>su</code> to get root access 3. Assuming your LAN interface is on eth0, run <code>ethtool eth0</code>
The output will look similar to this:
<{{code>|[root@localhost ~]# ethtool eth0<br>Settings for eth0:<br> Supported ports: [ TP MII ]<br> Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full <br> 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full <br> 1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full <br> Supports auto-negotiation: Yes<br> Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full <br> 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full <br> 1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full <br> Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes<br> Speed: 1000Mb/s<br> Duplex: Full<br> Port: MII<br> PHYAD: 0<br> Transceiver: internal<br> Auto-negotiation: on<br> Supports Wake-on: pumbg<br> Wake-on: g<br> Current message level: 0x00000033 (51)<br> Link detected: yes<br></code>}} 4. Look for a line similar to this:
3. Look for a line similar to this Wake-on: g
<code>Wake-on: g</code>
This means that WOL by magic packets is enabled on that interface.
If the line is
<code>Wake-on: d</code>
then WOL is disabled. Activate it by running <code>ethtool -s eth1 wol g</code>
Wake-on: d then WOL is disabled. Activate it by running <code>ethtool -s eth0 wol g</code> If you don't find any line containing Wake-on at all, then your interface card doesn't support WOL, or the OS cannot detect it, or it's not enabled in the BIOS.
Check the ethtool man pages for a full explanation of the Wake-on options
