Wake-on-LAN failing on Proxmox? There are two completely separate problems people mean by this: Waking the physical Proxmox host from a full shutdown — this is regular hardware WoL. It works, with a few Proxmox-specific gotchas. Waking a VM that is powered off — classic magic-packet WoL does not work here. A virtual NIC is not a physical card sitting in a low-power state. If you mixed solutions from both threads and nothing worked, that is why. Do them separately. ...

If an Intel I225-V interface on Proxmox VE 9 starts falling into a repeating NETDEV WATCHDOG / Reset adapter loop after moving to a 7.0.x Proxmox kernel, there is now at least one well-documented report showing exactly that pattern. The important caveat is scope: this is not yet a broadly confirmed Proxmox-wide bug affecting every I225-V or I226-V system. The strongest current evidence comes from one detailed Proxmox VE 9.2.5 report where the same I225-V hardware was stable on 6.17.13-21-pve and repeatedly failed on two tested 7.0 kernels. ...
