Im trying to get wake-on-lan to work, Ive enabled it in my motherboard.
My NIC supports it and since the motherboard is PCI 2.2 compliant I
*dont* have a cable running from the NIC's WOL connector to the
motherboards WOL connector.
I know my NICs MAC address.
In the router, I have selected to forward anything on PORT 9 (UDP), but
the problem is it doesnt allow me to forward to a MAC address only to
an IP address. Since the router automatically assigns a new ip
address to the computer I dont know what the ip address of my computer
will be.
I can assign it an aribitrary IP address within my local LAN IP range,
but is there a default IP address of the card that needs to be used??
If so, how can I find my NICs IP address?
Once I get it working, Ill use
