NOTE: This setting takes effect when either Network (Infrastructure) or Device to Device (ad

hoc) mode is used.

Wake on Magic

Packet

This setting, enabled, wakes the computer from a sleep state when it receives a "magic packet"

from a sending computer. The magic packet contains the MAC address of the intended

destination computer.

Enabling turns on Wake on Magic Packet. Disabling turns off Wake on Magic Packet. Disabling

this only disables the magic packet feature, not Wake on Wireless LAN.

Wake on

Pattern Match

This feature wakes the computer from a sleep state when a particular wake pattern is received at

the adapter. This feature is supported by the Window* 7 and Windows 8. Such patterns typically

are:

Wake on new incoming TCP connection for IPv4 and IPv6 (TCP SYN IPv4 and TCP SYN

IPv6).

Wake on 802.1x re-authentication packets.

Disabling this only disables the pattern match feature, not Wake on Wireless LAN.
