Or alternately till the capacitors that were providing just enough standby
power for WOL to work discharge :-).

If you could connect another computer to the LAN and see if WOL always
works from it, that would eliminate standby power as the culprit
(I know if I actually unplug my computer then plug it back in later,
WOL won't work till I have manually powered up at least once).
