Hi,
My mac seems to work perfectly with Sleep Proxy for a while (i.e. I am able to wake it using my ATV or Remote etc), but after a few hours? or maybe days, it is no longer registered with the sleep proxy.

Any suggestions?
 
Under Settings -> Energy, have you ticked on the option "Switch off sleep for network access"? Ik don't know the exact wording, because on my iMac all is in Dutch :)

Are you using WiFi for your iMac? If yes, then check if your network you use for wake-up is listed first under Settings->Network->Wifi->Advanced-WiFi tab

Maybe this is all very obvious, but it rules out a few possibilities.

I've got the same problem. It's working perfectly during the day. But overnight my Airport Extreme somehow forgets about my iMac, and Wake on Demand isn't working anymore. Did you manage to fix this?
