P8z77 WS Wake On LAN Not Working

[ahemsa]

I have recently built a new computer based on the ASUS p8z77 WS motherboard which has two Intel 82574L NIC's installed.

I am running Win 7 x64. For a NIC driver I have 12.7.27.0 dated 5/16/13 from Intel's website. I THINK this is the latest but I wouldn't swear to it though, their driver website is abysmal. In the device manager, power management, wake on lan, I have selected "Wake on Magic Packet" and "Wake on Magic Packet from power off state" on both NICs. "Wake on pattern match" is NOT checked.

I am running the latest BIOS, version 3505. In the BIOS I have DISABLED eRP and ENABLED allow wake up from PCI/PCIe devices.

When I tell Windows to shut down it shuts down cleanly and powers off. I have verified that BOTH NICs have link lights. I can send a magic packet from either my Android app or another computer and it does absolutely nothing. I have two other computers on the network which wake on lan perfectly so I know that the packets are being sent properly from my WOL apps.

I have tried each individually with no success.

Ideas?

there newer drivers for the chipset.

The Intel website would lead you to believe that is a newer driver, but it is not. On the website it lists it as 8/29/13, however, when extracted and installed the device manager shows 5/16/13 as the date. Thinking that it might have just not installed the latest driver, I manually extracted the files from Intel and compared the dates on the DLL files, which are indeed, 5/16.

Any other guesses?

under the nic make sure let windows turn off the nic to save power is off. and also under enegy savings for windows set it to let windows turn on the nic when the pc is off.
Configure the Energy Saving Settings to allow the NIC to Wake up the System

My laptop, with a broadcom wired NIC, has the options you mention under the power management tab. The intel, on the other hand replaces those options with these options.

It has the following:
Power Saver Options:
Reduce link speed during standby (have tried checked and unchecked, no difference)
Reduce link speed during battery operation (haven't messed with this because it's a desktop)
Reduce link speed to save power (have tried checked and unchecked, no difference)

Wake on LAN:
Wake on Magic Packet (currently checked)
Wake on Pattern Match (currently unchecked)
Wake on Magic Packet from power off state (currently checked)
Wake on Link Settings (currently unchecked)
