Summary
Contains instruction to resolve issue related to system not able to wake-up from powered-down state.
Description
Link goes down on the Intel® Ethernet Adapter as soon as the Windows® 10 system went to shutdown mode. The LED (Light-Emitting Diode) lights on the adapter are not lit.
Resolution
Wake-on-LAN from S5 (powered down) state requires additional configuration, and the network adapter needs to have an updated Intel driver to make it functional. Review the complete list of Intel® Ethernet Adapters that have full support in Windows® 10.

- Disable fast startup feature. Go to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Power Options -> change settings that are currently unavailable -> shutdown settings -> turn on fast startup: disabled.
