WAKE ON LAN SUPPRT w5 PRO???

Post by 10collective »

Hello, I love the w5 pro! very great product, I use it as mini servers in many places. My only issue is due to where the servers are located, sometimes the power will go off and the sticks turn off!!!! I need to be able to remotely turn the sticks back on!

is it possible to set up wake on LAN support with w5 pro if i have a USB ethernet adapter???? Please let me know ASAP, thanks!

okay! thankfully in the BIOS there is an option to restore AC power loss, which turns the w5 back on when power comes back, this is very helpful.
I wanted to know, is there was a way to set up w5 to turn on automatically from the BIOS? I notice other BIOS on computers have a power management tab that gives you this option. I wanted to know if it was possible to get this option in my BIOS on the w5? thanks

Hello, I updated the BIOS and do not have the option to schedule to computer to turn on at a specific time. I only have the AC POWER ON option.... I would like to know if there is a BIOS version where i can enable the w5 to turn on at a specific time.

My current BIOS version is 5.011 and BIOS ID is T500007.

Would simply like to have a BIOS where i can set up computer to turn on at a certain time, this is very common and basic in most computer BIOS, please let me know how to make this possible!
