Hi, I know I'm late to this topic, but I haven't had any WOL problems with my N40L until recently.
I've been running DSM 5.2 for several years and have had no problems. Decided to upgrade to DSM 6.2 so I could take advantage of some of the new backup tools. But I cannot, for the life of me, get my production N40L to wake on lan.
I was careful - tried it in a VM, then installed 5.2 and upgraded to 6.2 on a (physical) test box. Everything was good so I decided to upgrade my production box. I have read several theads on this issue, have followed all the clues, and am still unable to wake up my production box. The difference, I think, is that I have a 2nd NIC in that box, and the bios has reordered the ports putting my embedded NIC on Lan2. And, of course, the GUI only gives you the option of setting WOL on Lan1. I have changed all the usual options in sysinfo.conf with no success.
Anyone encountered this problem before? My next option is to take the machine apart and remove the 2nd NIC. But before I do that, I'd like to know if there's a software solution available.
Thanks
