Syncthing waking up computer Windows

There is certainly a solution, but it may not involve Windows. :wink:

Did you check if connected standby is used by your system?

powercfg /a
Die folgenden Standbymodusfunktionen sind auf diesem System verfügbar:
    Standby (S3)
    Ruhezustand

Die folgenden Standbymodusfunktionen sind auf diesem System nicht verfügbar:
    Standby (S1)
        Die Systemfirmware unterstützt diesen Standbystatus nicht.

    Standby (S2)
        Die Systemfirmware unterstützt diesen Standbystatus nicht.

    Standby (S0 Niedriger Energiestand – Leerlauf)
        Dieser Standbyzustand wird von der Systemfirmware nicht unterstützt.

    Hybrider Standbymodus
        Dieser Standbyzustand wird von Hypervisor nicht unterstützt.

    Schnellstart
        Diese Aktion ist in der aktuellen Systemrichtlinie deaktiviert.

So it says S3 and hibernation are available. The rest are not.

So it has to be WOL. Do you have a second computer available to run Wireshark while your other PC is in standby?

Yes, I got one. Do I need to configure Wireshark or does it work out of the box? WakeOnLAN

Start capturing and simply add wol as your display filter. That should be enough.

@bt90 you are a goddamn hero. It had indirect to do with Syncthing. Because Syncthing tried to reach my PC the router sent a WOL magic packet. I don’t know when or why I have set this Wake on LAN setting in my router back then but it was the problem. The checkbox was set:

Your idea of tracking it via wireshark was the thing I needed. I saw the source AVMAudio sending a WOL package to broadcast as the destination and that triggered the PC to wake up.
