WOL doesn't work when shutdown

Question

I've enabled WOL on shutdown function. I've disabled Energy Star from either Windows adapter settings and BIOS. I've enabled WOL on Magic Packet (also with broadcasting) and in power management tab all checkmarks are there. Still I am able to wake up the PC from sleep mode, but if I shut down it, no way to wake it up...

Mainboard is ASUS P5Q3, Windows 7 64 bit.

Pulling my hair off slowly...

I'm using direct LAN connection from Ubuntu server to that PC, through switch. LAN LED is on after shutdown. I have tried both ethernet ports, same result.

C:\>powercfg -devicequery wake_armed
Marvell Yukon 88E8001/8003/8010 PCI Gigabit Ethernet Controller
Marvell Yukon 88E8056 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller

Solution

Found solution. Enabling Power ON by PCI devices option solved the issue. Hope I can get back my bounty points :)

@Michael - do you have a WOL cable connected from your NIC to the motherboard? All the correct settings in the world won't do a lick of good without that cable.

:) If I wouldn't have connected cable, how I would wake up from sleep mode?

go into the BIOS and make sure that BOTH LAN1 & LAN2 are enabled for WOL.

@person who upvoted first comment: Motherboards with an embedded Ethernet controller which supports Wake-on-LAN do not need a cable.

Because I read in the docs that EnergyStar will turn off WOL for one of the LAN ports. But anyway, neither way works :(

Actually, WoL keeps ethernet cards powered while the machine is off, and has since the 1990s.

Unfortunately, you cannot. You cannot award a bounty to yourself.

The option you mention can be set where? BIOS, Control Panel, ...?

@pablo c'mon man, I have this exact same problem with the Realtek LAN on my Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3. Where is the option located??

Usually, it's in the BIOS settings.
