Hey! this is really crazy :) but it works! To bo honest - I really do not know what crazy bug could cause problems like this. I thought it's NIC thing to manage all the work about WOL. I thought OS only sets NIC into "WOL mode".
But seeing this - one packet for windows and one magic packet for linux driver - I really do not get it.
