Wake on LAN

[Jerry Feldman]

As I did mention, I have seen online that my MOBO does support Wake on 
Lan, but I was unable to locate the switch in the BIOS, but 
additionally, It took me 10 minutes this morning just to find the 
virtualization switch. It is possible that it is not enabled on my 
specific version of either the BIOS or MB.
