Intel® Ethernet Adapter Unable to Wake-on-LAN from S5 in Windows® 10

Link goes down on the Intel® Ethernet Adapter as soon as the Windows® 10 system went to shutdown mode. The LED (Light-Emitting Diode) lights on the adapter are not lit. 

Wake-on-LAN from S5 (powered down) state requires additional configuration, and the network adapter needs to have an updated Intel driver to make it functional. Review the complete list of Intel® Ethernet Adapters that have full support in Windows® 10.

Follow the steps below to set up your system:

1. Disable all the power save options under the Power Management tab of the network adapter properties in Device Manager:
   • Respond to NS requests without waking system
   • Energy Efficient Ethernet
   • Reduce link speed during standby
   
   Enable Wake on LAN settings:
   • Wake on Magic Packet
   • Wake on Pattern Match
   • Wake on Magic Packet from power off state
   • Wake on Link Settings
2. Disable Hiberboot feature. Edit the Windows Registry. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Power. Change the REG_DWORD of HiberbootEnabled from 1 to 0.
3. Disable fast startup feature. Go to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Power Options -> change settings that are currently unavailable -> shutdown settings -> turn on fast startup: disabled.
4. Enable wake-on-LAN functions in the system BIOS. Contact system manufacturer for specific settings.
