Does my computer need an specific setting to be configured on bios to enable wake on lan facility in order to use the USB to RJ45 adapter? Many Thanks

If your BIOS has the option, it should work. The adapter doesn't make a difference.

Hey Roger... to answer that question accurately 2 things are needed 1) complete description of your system specs.. specially your operating system 2) someone qualified enough to interpret them. As far as i can confortably say... i git a pretty new Windows 8 laptop.. i only had to plug it.. and that's it... in this day in age no one would make a device that would require you to mess around with the bios.. of course provided your computer.. is not old as dirt.... Roger. This has worked so well so far that i d say. Buy it , try it if it does not work. Return it.

in the driver properties/advanced, there are settings for: "wake on link change", "wake on Magic Packet", "Wake on pattern match", and "WOL Link Power Saving"

Your best bet is to get a fan with a 3-pin connector and plug it into one of the "case fan" headers on your mother board, then you can set the speed/temp profile in your BIOS like you do for the CPU fan. You could also buy a 4-pin molex fan and plug it into the power supply as you mentioned. Last, you could get a Y adapter to run it off the 3/4-pin "cpu fan" header on the board but I would not suggest that.

This adapter allows connection of a cases USB 3.0 port to a USB 2.0 header on the motherboard. If the motherboard has a 19 pon USB 3.0 header, this adapter is not needed.

Is your power LED on or off when the system isn't running. It will depend on the way your motherboard handles power to the USB ports. My motherboard allows you to set a jumper to use the +5V rail from the power supply that does go off and on with the system's operation. The motherboard also allows you to use the +5VSB (the SB means standby) to power the USB ports. That stays power supply stays on as long as the power supply switch (on the back of the PC) is on and the PC is plugged in. Some motherboards may not give you this choice. Check your motherboard manual. If +5V is powering your USB ports the card reader's LED will be off when the system isn't operating. If +5VSB is powering your USB ports then the LED will remain on. Why have a +5VSB? Well that's to allow your front panel power switch to be a "soft" switch that doesn't switch the full load of your system. It also allows other components on your motherboard to to powered up when the system is not operating. That makes it possible for you to wake the system based on the time of day, by taping a key on the keyboard or clicking the mouse. Those last two require the keyboard and mouse to be getting power all the time. Today, most keyboards and mice are USB devices so motherboard designers use the +5VSB to power the USB ports if they want you to have the "tap to start" feature. Too bad they don't let you chose which USB ports operate that way. I hope that explains it for those who seem to wonder why the other guy is experiencing the power light on or off when the system isn't running. By the way, a little piece of black tape can hide the LED and others have disconnected the LED on some similar card readers by clipping the LED's power lead. I haven't cracked this one open to see if that is possible because it doesn't bother me.

There's a fan controller next to the USB 3.0 ports on top of the tower, but it only toggles them on and off and can't control their speed. I bought an NZXT Sentinel fan controller because I overclock and I love the thing.

No you don't have to have the RJ45 port plugged in all the time. Some people may not have a wireless lan set up. Also, it may be easier for initial setup of the device.

I bought it for my Y2P. It worked much better than the original card but I would still lose connection from time to time. Not sure about updated Bios but I had upgraded about a month ago before selling the PC.

I dont see how the bios is relevant, if it is not posting something is dead. Start with memory, switch slots eventually try stick individually if there is more than one. If u are using a kaveri it should post with no bios update since the chipset is for kaveri, if using richland or trinity also

see bottom of page: http://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/Z97DELUXE/specifications/ *1 : The PCIe x16_3, USB3_E56 and SATAExpress_E1 connectors share the same bandwidth. The PCIe x16_3's default setting is in Auto mode that automatically optimizes the system bandwidth. If you use two of these connectors, the system automatically disables the unused connector. *2 : M.2 Socket 3 shares bandwidth with SATAExpress_1 *3 : These functions will work depending on the CPU installed. *4 : These SATA ports are for data hard drivers only. ATAPI devices are not supported.

There's a cable with the little fan connectors on it. Additionally, some motherboards have 1 or 2 fan control plugs (in addition to the CPU fan control). If your motherboard has them, then it's *probably* a good idea to use those for the primary case fan, as the BIOS will rev the fans up and down according to its needs. (I think the included cable is designed to plug into an old-style Molex connector from the power supply, but I'm not 100% sure and I can't get to my machine at the moment.)

This computer does in fact have a 3.0 USB port. Is it hooked up to the motherboard? Yes. If it wasn't I'm sure my Wireless Network Adapter would not have worked.

I would go into the bios settings of your machine, if you are computer savy, and set the bootup list to include usb devices. Plus move the usb device as the first device. If the usb device is not attached, the system will default to the next device on the list. I have not tried this myself, but should work. Hope this helps.

You may not have to even worry about the bios. I upgraded from an AMD A6 to this cpu and didn't have to change bios at all. Once I had the cpu installed and the cpu fan connected. ( make sure of this) The CPU set itself up. All I did was turn on the laptop, let it go threw start up, which took a few more seconds than normal. Once windows came up that was it. It is still a good idea to go in and check system processor to make sure it says AMD A10-4600m

This device needs a computer on to work. You might be able to wake your computer from sleep mode with the OS or BIOS setting. Look for wake on USB.

Depends on the bios setting of the computer, but it's usually on for me at connect

I had not tried that, but it would depend on your bios functionality to wake via usb and the software, if using windows, to program a particular button so that the remote's receiver can send the wakeup signal; I used this under linux, in a program called LNMCE using the LIRC module.

Emailed Zotac, their response is as follows Hi Chris, Thanks for your interest in our ION boards. To answer your question more correctly. ION has been release to the market for 2-3 month already. However, due to the fact that we are the only one and the only launching partner for nVidia on ION. Our backorders are stacking up and the shipments can never catch up the orders. Currently we are also facing shortage on the Intel Dual core ATOM CPU as well. One place you can also find is Newegg.com. We are currently expecting our next big shipment to arrive about next week. Amazon will usually post the inventory about one week time frame. To answer your wake on USB question. Shipment after mid-May has already implement with the wake on USB feature. Therefore, I am very sure for the next shipment of ION's will have the wake on USB feature for sure. Regards, Allen Wang Director of Sales (the 2-3 months was a pasted response from amazon about this item not being released yet) So the main difference between A-U dual core board, and the D-E is the PSU that is included?
