If you download the official firmware update tool from Marvell and run it, does it identify an Aquantia NIC in the PC? If it identifies an Aquantia NIC, even if it says it cannot update the firmware, you may be able to recover it...

This is sadly true. Despite showing the "pg" flags for wake-on-lan, the ASUS doesn't support it. I was unable to wake my server using the ASUS NIC whereas the Intel wakes it just fine. Seems like a waste to license/rebadge a chipset and then not give it the full functionality. They probably...

I pulled the XG-C100C out of my Linux box and threw it into a Windows 10 system and, sure enough, the WoL functionality is software-disabled. The card supports it, but it is disabled via the aqnic650.inf settings that come as part of the Marvell driver bundle. The relevant section of the .inf...

Have you tried reinstalling the 2.1.21.0 driver directly off Marvell's website? https://www.marvell.com/content/dam/marvell/en/drivers/Marvell_AQtion_x64_Win_ver2.1.21.0.zip Your Power Management tab should look similar to: And the "wake" options should be at the bottom of the Property field...

Glad you got it to work! The "Device" field above gives you all the values you need (though non-intuitively).

I can't with MacOS but for Windows 10, make sure you're on driver 2.1.21.0 (or newer). In Device Manager for the NIC, on the Power Management tab, I have the following options set: [x] Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power (you could try unchecking this, but for me, it...

What is the operating system that you're attempting to wake? WOL is more than just firmware support - the dials and knobs for the OS must also be tuned correctly.

Yes, 3.1.109 supports WOL. I am able to use the Linux command "wakeonlan" to wake a sleeping Windows 10 box with an AQC108 with 3.1.109 firmware. AQC107-based cards (such as the XG-C100C) with 3.1.109 should behave no differently.

It does not change the MAC address of your card. I have updated the firmware on my XG-C100C four or five times and it still has the same MAC as the label on the box it came in. If you want to be 100% safe (because you are within your warranty period and you don't have some critical issue), you...

The atlflashupdate tool actually gives you the info you need when it displays the NIC (that it then refuses to update). It compares what it finds against the packaged .xml file and if it finds a match, it will update the firmware. If you take the string of 16 hex characters that atlflashupdate...

Marvell dropped new firmware for their Aquantia cards: https://www.marvell.com/content/dam/marvell/en/drivers/MarvellFlashUpdate_1.5.0_3.1.109.zip I read somewhere earlier in the thread that someone wanted to update their ASUS XG-C100C and the standard Aquantia firmware updater wasn't working...
