Hello,
I have an Intel NUC 12 (NUC12WSKi7) running Proxmox VE 9.2.3 and I cannot get Wake-on-LAN to work. Under Windows 11 WOL works perfectly, but under Proxmox the NIC loses power completely after shutdown.
Hardware:
BIOS configuration:
What I tried in Proxmox:
Result: After shutdown the LAN port LED is completely off. No power to the NIC. WOL is impossible.
Key observation: Under Windows 11 with the latest Intel driver WOL works perfectly – the LAN LED stays on after shutdown. Under Proxmox/Linux the igc driver seems to cut power to the NIC completely during shutdown regardless of WOL settings.
Has anyone solved this specific issue with the i225-V and igc driver under Proxmox? Is there a known patch or workaround?
Thank you!

Hardware:
- Intel NUC12WSKi7
- Intel Ethernet Controller I225-V (igc driver)
- BIOS: WSADL357.0098.2026.0311.1524 (latest)
BIOS configuration:
- Wake on LAN from S4/S5 → Power On - Normal Boot
- Pseudo G3 → Disabled
- PCIe ASPM → Disabled
What I tried in Proxmox:
- ethtool -s nic0 wol g → Wake-on shows g
- systemd wol.service with ExecStart and ExecStop both setting wol g and RemainAfterExit=yes
- GRUB parameter pcie_port_pm=off
- /etc/modprobe.d/igc.conf with options igc enable_wake=1
- Kernel downgrade from 7.0.6 to 6.17.13-13-pve
- post-up in /etc/network/interfaces
Result: After shutdown the LAN port LED is completely off. No power to the NIC. WOL is impossible.
