I don't know much about WOL, but my ethernet card (LinkSys) has WOL
capability. From what I gather, the ethernet card gets plugged into a
special plug on the motherboard (there is a cable on the card). When
the ethernet card gets some signal, it sends the appropriate signal to
the motherboard, which then wakes up the system. I don't know what
the signals are or how to config the system but I do know that the
motherboard must support it.
