Title: Saving Power Using Wake On Lan / Wmp 11
Post by: weisel on September 26, 2008, 09:28:00 AM

Naturally, the 360 sucks when compared to old trusty xbmc, but I don't want to buy and mod another xbox to put in the living room and my xbmc box is in my bedroom.

I've been doing some research the past couple of days and so far, it's looking pretty grim.  

I would like to save power by allowing my media server to go into standby when not in use. It would be swell if I could use wake on lan to bring it to life when I want to stream something from either xbox.

So far, I can only wake the machine from another computer, not from the xboxes

Has anybody had any luck with this?
