The PDF docs that I have downloaded from 3Com's site don't show the arhitecture for a 905B-COMBO, they only have 900B-COMBO which doesn't provide the 3-pin Remote Wake-Up Connector. I went though all related part of the docs and I couldn't find anything affirmative or negative related to usage of BNC as source for WOL packets. Also the power to the transceiver is controlled through 2 commands (Enable/DisableDcConverter) and nothing is mentioned about it being powered off or left on when entering some low power states... So I think that the only way to know is to try ;-) -- Bogdan Costescu IWR - Interdisziplinaeres Zentrum fuer Wissenschaftliches Rechnen Universitaet Heidelberg, INF 368, D-69120 Heidelberg, GERMANY Telephone: +49 6221 54 8869, Telefax: +49 6221 54 8868 E-mail: [email protected] _______________________________________________ vortex mailing list [email protected] http://www.scyld.com/mailman/listinfo/vortex
