hi there all - hope i am in the right place...
trying to set my media centre pc to wake-on-lan so i can use it as file server as well. It currently suspend to S3 with no problems. I tried to set the network card to wake-on-lan - it works in principal but it keeps waking up few seconds after it suspends... i guess it recieves some network traffic from somewhere but i'm not sure how to figure out what exactly it wakes on and how to filter the traffic data so it wakes up only on relevant traffic (file sever, vnc server, print server)

any ideas anyone?
