Hi All,

My flatmates and I have just got broadband and I have successfully set up a tcp/ip network with ics so that we can all use it. It's configured so that my computer connectes automatically if a request for an external ip address is recieved, which is good. However, what I would like to do is get my computer to boot up automatically if it is switched off and someone wants to surf the net. I have looked in the bios and enabled boot on lan and boot on pci, but it won't! Does anyone have any ideas?

Cheers,

Matt

YOU NEED TO HAVE A LAN CARD WITH THE ABILITY TO WAKE ON LAN ETC. AND YOU HAVE TO CONNECT A JUMPER FROM THE LAN CARD TO THE MOBO.
