Wake on Wireless LAN

My PC uses an Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN network card.  With my current driver version, 12.4.1.11, Wake on Wireless LAN is unavailable (check box is grayed out).  Is there a driver version for this card that supports Wake on Wireless LAN? This seems like a feature that should be available.

    Thank you for your post.

    Note that currently none of our wireless adapters support Wake on Wireless LAN, (WoWLAN).  Several years ago there used to be an option to do this on older adapters, but none of the adapters will support it now. Currently there are no plans on integrating and supporting this feature again.


    We are sorry for any inconveniences this may cause.
