When I send a "sudo halt" command to the RPi, this goes off. Power of the RPi is connected through the output NC (Normally Closed) of a relay.Īs the relay is normally closed, when main power is switched ON, both systems start up. I connect an ETH002 board (from Devantech) to the network. I tackled the issue using an inexpensive ethernet power relay. But I use a trick to WOL my Raspberry Pi's (I use several RPi's in the museum where I work). I'm facing the same issue for a long time. Somewhere on their blog they admitted to forgetting about it. Not in the base device, but it’s been a very commonly requestedįeature, so we’re examining options for later releases. One thing to cry about if the fact that PoE has been omitted, but luckily Raspberrians questioned this fact and it turns out. I know the other answers say you cannot shut down or sleep the Raspberry Pi (maybe with existing OS's), but the answer is still there is WoL in the LAN Module and that is a fact. End of the day as long as there is power connected to Raspberry Pi (even if it off state or sleeping), you can use the WoL with out problem. Management wakeup features, including Magic Packet™, Wake-on LAN (WOL) The manufacturer of the LAN microchip clearly says in their specifications the there is WoL on the LAN module.Įthernet features: 10/100 Ethernet controller supports numerous power If you dig a bit deeper you find out the LAN micro chip, which incidentally is also the 2 port USB hub.
