Connect the Wake on LAN Power Cable
For the Wake on LAN (WOL) feature to work correctly, the
adapter must be connected to a continuous power source. This
allows the HP NetServer 10/100 adapter to “listen to” the
network even when the computer is turned off. To install the
WOL power cable, carefully follow the procedure below.
WARNING Turn off and unplug power to the computer
before installing the WOL cable. The WOL
connector on your motherboard is live when
the computer is plugged in to a power
outlet. Failure to do so could damage the
adapter or computer. Likewise, always
unplug the computer prior to removing an
adapter from the computer.
1. Make sure your computer is unplugged from the power
outlet.
2. Locate the 3-pin WOL connector on the HP NetServer
10/100 adapter. Attach one end of the WOL cable to the
adapter as shown in Figure 4-1.
NOTE The connector is notched so as to prevent
incorrect attachment.
