I've never used it to wake from sleep, but I've
found it works fine to power up the system after
a shutdown, with one limitation: Absolutely no
NIC I've ever used that claimed WOL support
has actually worked except for linksys brand
NICs. I have no idea what is different about
linksys and all the others.
