GS108T v2 WOL no longer working

I have researched this but there is no clear straight solution for why Netgear Smart Switches do not support WOL (perhaps anymore).  I do see a lot of posts of people stating to have problems with WO...

carlitos008,

 

Welcome to the community! 🙂

 

1. Which Netgear smart switches support WOL? and with which version of the software?

As far as I have checked, WoL is not mentioned on the data sheets of any NETGEAR Smart Managed Pro Switch models.  

 

2.  Of the (possible) switches supporting WOL, what settings need to be enabled?

There are no settings dedicated for WoL as well as there are no settings that can be configured to make WoL work.  

 

You can only configure WoL on the computer (or any device) where you have installed the WoL software.
