Anyone kicked a windows box into consistently waking up when sent a
Wake on LAN "Magic Packet"?

Windows Vista Home Premium, will wake up some times when the packet
is sent and the NAS always wakes up when sent it's packet from the
same program so confidence is high that the correct packet is being
sent and that the BIOS settings are right.

In typical WIndows fashion there are half a dozen or more settings
scattered across about three dialogues, all in different bits of the
UI. Some settings appear to interact.

Been fiddling and now the machine doesn't wake at all. It would wake
from "sleep" if you put it to "sleep" waited for a few seconds after
the power down the sent the Magic Packet. But if you left it "asleep"
for a period of time (FSVO: "period") it doesn't wake up.

Has anyone got a consistently working set of WOL settings for 'doze?

I used to use WOL via LogMeIn - the free version. Various changes to
LogMeIn stopped the free version and, I think, removed the WOL facility.
At the time, it was extremely useful but haven't needed it sufficiently
to seek out alternatives.
