Wake-on-LAN non-functional

[rokejulianlockhart]

Issue

I’m using cpe:/o:opensuse:tumbleweed:20240308. My last installation (using a different motherboard — unfortunately, I have forgotten which) correctly accepted WOL packets after I configured them via the OS (hence why I’m asking here) but I don’t seem to be able to get my current installation to accept them following what I believe to be the same steps.

Does anyone have any ideas of what I might need to do?

WOL is disabled on your adapter.

Wake-on: d

Enable WOL in BIOS and use one of the described methodes:

Thanks, @hui. I followed Wake-on-LAN - ArchWiki

I recall the last time that I tried, enabling it not persisting upon reboot. I’m aware that Wake-on-LAN - ArchWiki describes solely modifying a file to get it to work, but I didn’t need to last time. I’ll still try this time if testing it doesn’t work.

I’ll do a systemctl poweroff and try to boot it using the MAC address via https://github.com/Florianisme/WakeOnLan/releases/download/1.9.0/app-release.apk.

I did not read all details above, but this is a link to my experiences:

Wake-on-LAN, a working case

While this is labeled OTHER VERSION, it should be applicable to many versions and certainly those that use systemd. Wake-on-LAN, a working case Not long ago there was a question on the forum about getting Wake-on-LAN (WOL) functional. After this was solved, I implemented this in my own home network. Not long thereafter a new thread was started by another member about WOL and he could be helped with the same solution. While WOL is a subject with many aspects, these threads showed that a solutio…

[rokejulianlockhart]

Yeah, that worked, @hui. I wonder what I did so wrong last time. Thanks, and apologies for asking a silly question. Does openSUSE have an alternative for Wake-on-LAN - ArchWiki? I don’t want to mess around with SystemD files.

[rokejulianlockhart]

Wake-on-LAN - ArchWiki worked!

[arvidjaar]

@rokejulianlockhart

I don’t want to mess around with SystemD files.

What are you talking about? Wicked, NetworkManager, sytsemd-networkd all have native ways to enable (ot disable) WoL. And default is to not touch this setting, so as long as it is enabled in BIOS it should just work.

@arvidjaar,

I’m referring to the instructions in Wake-on-LAN - ArchWiki, as aforecited in the comment you responded to.

@arvidjaar

NetworkManager, sytsemd-networkd all have native ways to enable (ot disable) WoL.

I’m aware — did you not see Wake-on-LAN non-functional - #6 by rokejulianlockhart?

@arvidjaar

And default is to not touch this setting, so as long as it is enabled in BIOS it should just work.

That’s never been the case for me, across 3 UEFI MBs and 5 OSes (Windows 10, Windows 11, Fedora 35, 36, and Rawhide, via Kinoite, the default Workstation and Server GNOME and the KDE Spin, and OSTW).

Instead, enabling it via the OS has always worked. I’d merely forgotten how I accomplished that last.
