     it's called and needed to open port 80 for it to work. Is there any
way 
     I can integrate this magic packet somewhere to make the cube wake
up 
     when it is needed?
     Who's to send the magic packet? Unless you have a cable
modem/router smart enough to do that, no. I haven't heard of this.
     >>why does the cube turn off the Ethernet when it sleeps anyway?
     Why this obsession with turning your processor off? Who's to handle
the computing needed for Ethernet then? The only thing it can handle
autonomously is to wake the CPU, and it does it only when it accepts th
magic packet.
