On Windows?!? Talk about an anecdotal experience
The wake on LAN option is an absolute joke too.
Leave computer for a while > goes to sleep
Come back in the morning > computer is on and room is warm
No magic packet was sent, it just decided it was going to wake up and then ignore the "sleep after X minutes" setting and just remain on.

When i deactivate wol, it sleeps just as it should. It goes to sleep after a while and only comes back if i hit a button on the mouse or a key on the keyboard.
I'm not sure what else could be conflicting with wol, but the sleep function only goes haywire when it's enabled.
