| 202690 | 2003-12-24 01:33:00 | Thanks folks - that sorted it out. I had the right settings in the NIC, but it was the BIOS setting that was the key - Wake up on LAN was disabled in BIOS. I was a bit confused with this Fujitsu laptop because just doing the NIC thing wasn't working. My Toshiba laptop has a "Toshiba Console" that controls quite a lot of settings, and it has an option for Wake up on LAN. I was looking for a similar setting in the Fujitsu in case I was overlooking something. However, the Fujitsu laptop is the same as my desktop - no shortcuts - you have to do the NIC Properties thing as well as enabling it in BIOS. That IP Scanner is a neat little utility Chilling - thanks. Now installed and pinned to the Start Menu for future use! Thanks guys. |
