2.Wake On LAN (WOL) function statements

   (1) Overview

       The Wake on LAN function allows user to remotely wake up a sleeping or
       powered of PC on a network by sending a specific packet of information,
       called a Magic Packet frame, to a node on the network. When a PC capable
       of receiving the specific frame goes to sleep, it will enable the Magic
       Packet mode in the LAN controlle , and when the LAN controller receives
       a Magic Packet frame, it will alert the system to wake up.

   (2) System Requirements

       1> Any kind of motherboard with Wake On LAN function support.

       2> ATX Power Supply

       3> This SURECOM EP-320X-S 100/10M Ethernet PCI Adapter or any one which supported
          Wake On LAN function which is accomplished by Magic Packet technology.

   (3) Configuration Tips

       1> Connect Wake On LAN cable (optional) to SURECOM EP-320X-S 100/10M Ethernet PCI 
          Adapter and your Mother Board's Wake On Lan connector. 

          Note: If you have Motherboard with PCI 2.2 specification supported, you don't
                have to connect this Wake on LAN cable to SURECOM EP-320X-S 100/10M Ethernet
                PCI Adapter and your Mother Board's Wake On Lan connector. 
       2> Make sure Power Management item in BIOS is Enable
       3> If Windows Environments used, check Control Panel-> Power
          Management-> Power Schemes, the Power Schemes CANNOT be "Always On"

   (4) Testing Method

       To perform Wake on LAN test, please prepare two PCs with 
       SURECOM EP-320X-S 100/10M Ethernet PCI Adapter pluged in.  
       Of course, two of the PCs should have WOL function and ATX power supported.
       And please check these two PCs are connected by 
       SURECOM EP-320X-S 100/10M Ethernet PCI Adapter via a hub ( switch ) or a cross over UTP
       cable.

       1> Connect WOL cable to SURECOM EP-320X-S 100/10M Ethernet PCI Adapter 
          and motherboard.
          Note : 
               If the motherboard support both PCI 2.1 and PCI 2.2 spec. , 
               you can choose not to connect WOL cable to both ends. 
       2> Power on these two PC into pure MS-DOS. 
       3> Please find and execute SETUP.EXE from the driver diskette of 
          SURECOM EP-320X-S 100/10M Ethernet PCI Adapter, and then select 
          "Show Configuration", then you will see the card information on the 
          screen, record the Ethernet Address.
          Note :
                If you want to copy SETUP.EXE to harddisk, please copy A:\Modern.fon
                to the same location of SETUP.EXE.
       4> Power down one PC, which is going to be run WOL test.
       5> Please find and execute SETUP.EXE from the driver diskette of 
          SURECOM EP-320X-S 100/10M Ethernet PCI Adapter, and then select "Utility" -> 
          "Transmit  Magic Pkts"  then Input the destination address, which means 
          the Ethernet  address of the SURECOM EP-320X-S 100/10M Ethernet PCI Adapter of 
          the power down PC , with continous 12 Hexadecimal number, for example,
          00002100123A , and then press <Enter> .
       6> The power down PC will be waken up and power on.

  • Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.

  • Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.

  • From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.

  • Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.

Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
