MacRumors Geniuses,

Since upgrading to Mavericks my Mac Mini goes to sleep immediately after being woken by a WOL packet. - I've timed it (now) and it's 1 minute....

I have a Squeezebox running Logitech Media Server (v7.8) -
the "keep the Mac awake" settings in the Media Server software don't seem to work too well - the Squeezebox will wake the Mac Mini but it then it just goes back to sleep - even if the Energy Saver settings are set to 3 hours...

this is a Mavericks issue -
After a WOL packet - if the computer doesn't detect some sort of 'action' then it sleeps after only 1 minute.

this is a change from 10.8

Anyone have any idea about this???

thanks

There's some good info on this issue here.

A half fix is to add a darkwake flag to your boot config, but it's not always perfect.

For now that's what I'm doing for my remote wake needs.
 
i have the exact same problem :( mac mini is in sleep. i wake it up remotely over lan/wan, which works! and after 1 minute or so it goes back to sleep.

very frustrating since i would like to have my mac mini sleep mostly of the time and wake it up only if needed.

is there any fix for this?
