10.6: Turn off automatic wake-from-sleep network check
Authored by: everkleer80 on Jun 14, '11 08:24:49AM

I do like the new feature that will automatically wake my Mac when I try to access it without requiring me to use a WOL utility. However, I would prefer for my machine not to wake up every two hours, since my home network configuration never (or rarely) changes. It seems that using the solution provided would disable the new feature completely, requiring me to once again use a WOL utility to wake my machine. Is there a way to disable the automatic wakeups without losing SL's 'wake for network access' enhancements?

FYI, the reason I don't really want my machine waking every two hours is because that makes it harder to troubleshoot the issues I often run into where my idle machine wakes itself and doesn't go back to sleep.
