My remote (host) PC at home is a Dell Optiplex 7010 with 16GB of RAM dual-booting Win 7 Pro SP1 64-bit and Win 10 Pro 64-bit. TV for unattended access is installed in both OSs. When the machine is on (either Win 7 or 10), I can access it from work very nicely using TV portable at work.
However, if my home PC is off, the WOL feature in TV does not work. I cannot turn that home PC on remotely. Yes, both TVs are configured to WOL, and the BIOS is configured correctly, etc.
I have two other PCs at home on the same home network, both running Win XP Pro SP3 32-bit, single-booting only, both with TV for unattended access (TV always on). The WOL feature in their TV works fine - I can wake up either of those XP machines from a distance. And I actually leave one of them on all the time - it's the one designated as the "source" PC for the WOL in the new dual-booting Win 7 + 10 PC.
But the WOL in the new dual-booting Win 7 + 10 PC simply doesn't do a thing. That machine stays off. Why-o-why-o-why-o?
Thanks.
