WOL does not work on the laptop when the lid is closed. It only works if I turn off the computer with the lid open (then I can even close it and WOL working). The problem is only when I turn off the computer with the lid closed - Then it won't wake up anymore. There is a "Wake on USB when lid closed" setting in the BIOS, the lid setting for LAN is missing. I wake up the computer using RJ-45, my previous laptops had no problem with this. In windows 11 the lid setting is on "do nothing". I use the laptop connected to an external monitor via HDMI. How to fix this problem?
