WOL for the WDTV Live seems pointless to me… unless my unit is broken. I mean, I have put a power-meter on it and when on and showing 1080p content over HDMI it consumes 7 Watt. When simply navigating through the menus or during screen saver it consumes 6 Watt. Then you hit the power button on the remote, switching it off… then it takes 5 Watt… 5 Watt is really a lot for being powered off… So, if this is “normal” then there is no point in putting effort in WOL. They then should first spend time on reducing the power on standby. Meanwhile you just leave the unit on. If someone else can tell me that his unit takes way less power in standby (powered down by remote) then I should return mine.
