It worked fine with Windows XP but after moving to windows 7, it never worked. After lot of testing and trying various things, I finally reached the solution.<p>So, here you go…<p>There is something called <strong> PME(Power Management Event) </strong> in Network connection properties which should be in enabled state to make your Windows 7 computer process the magic packets to wake up your computer.<p>To enable PME, follow the below steps.<ul><li> Go to Start -> Run -> Type “ncpa.cpl” and click OK<li>This opens up the network connections available in the computer. Here identify the NIC on which your computer will receive magic packets and go the properties of it.</ul><a href=https://techibee.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Wake-on-lan1.png> <img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-981"sizes="(max-width: 238px) 100vw, 238px"srcset="https://techibee.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Wake-on-lan1-238x300.png 238w, https://techibee.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Wake-on-lan1.png 375w"alt height=300 loading=lazy src=https://techibee.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Wake-on-lan1-238x300.png title=Wake-on-lan1 width=238> </a><ul><li>Click on Configure and Switch to advanced tab and select “Enable PME” property list and change the value to “Enable”</ul><a href=https://techibee.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Wake-on-lan2.png> <img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-982"sizes="(max-width: 270px) 100vw, 270px"srcset="https://techibee.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Wake-on-lan2-270x300.png 270w, https://techibee.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Wake-on-lan2.png 413w"alt height=300 loading=lazy src=https://techibee.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Wake-on-lan2-270x300.png title=Wake-on-lan2 width=270> </a><ul><li>Click on OK to complete the configuration.</ul><p>This will make your network connection to blip briefly.

short.When your computer is turned off and if it stays off for more than 5 minutes as you said, the router forgets the link or relationship between the mac address & ip address of the PC you want to wake up.I suppose you might already have reserved a specific ip address for the destined pc in the dhcp reservation table.You might have to upgrade the router to solve this problem if you are already using one.</div> <div class=comment_footer><a aria-label="Reply to Hammad"data-replyto="Reply to Hammad"class=comment-reply-link data-belowelement=comment-body-163997 data-commentid=163997
