Wake over LAN MSi Z87-G43

[matt565]

I have this motherboard and I am trying to set it up so I can wake my computer remotely. I have PCI-E settings enabled and I have EUP2013 disabled, so I am not sure why it is not waking. I have sent packets while the computer is on to Magic packet to make sure I am receiving them and I am. I have no lights on on ethernet port. I have also contacted MSI and this is what they said: "We have tested here on similar boards and when the board is off or in standby the port LEDs will be off but the board does power on when the wake packet is received."

Thanks

Do you have WOL enabled in the BIOS?

My Bios does not have that options MSI told me to instead make sure the PCI-e setting one is enabled.

Just figured it out I need to enable shutdown wake up in Device Manager.
