Allow the computer to turn off this device

If I try to activate the computer using WOL after about 10 minutes, he never wake. The problem is, Wake On Lan doesn't work unless the computer has been asleep for a short period of time. 'Allow this device to wake the computer' and 'Allow only a magic packet wake the computer' is checked, but become grayed out when 'allow this computer to turn off the device.'. ' is not checked.

On my Media Center PC, I am unable to use Wake on LAN unless 'allow this computer to turn off the device to save power' is checked (in the tab power management of the adapter in the Device Manager).

Cannot use Wake on LAN, unless that 'allow this computer to turn off the device to save power' is checked
