Hey Guys,

Excuse the story but it will assist in helping provide an answer to my post

I have a Thecus N5200 which I've modified to run Debian. According to ethtool the NIC is WOL compatable however when I enable WOL in Debian the NIC is not lit up when the Thecus is powered off. Looking at the Thecus BIOS (I connected a VGA connector) there is no option in the BIOS to enable WOL, I assume this is due to the old model of the motherboard (101) and BIOS.

Question:

Anyone know if and how I can update the BIOS to support WOL?
Any other suggestions to achieve the same result?

Thanks in advance,

Adam
