I've been using WoL for a while on my X99M Extreme 4 but after a recent BIOS update (version 3.0) noticed it wasn't working anymore.
After digging a bit into the UEFI I noticed that the option was gone from the ACPI menu. I remember it was something about "PCI Wake" but now the only options left are enabling wake for PS2 keyboards, COM ports, USB mouses and USB keyboards.

Haven't tried updating to the newest version yet (3.1), can someone confirm if this was fixed or if I'm somehow missing and the option was simply moved or changed its name?

Please update to the Production non-BETA BIOS 3.10 and report back if the option reappears.

If the option doesn't again show up on 3.10 I'll contact Tech Support to investigate this further.

The option is PCIe Devices Power On, in the ACPI screen, as you said.

My ASRock X99 board's latest UEFI version has that option listed, which includes enabling WOL in the description.

Did you try checking the Device Manager Network adapters entry for the Intel and Qualcomm Atheros Ethernet controllers, to see if WOL is enabled?

You still may need the UEFI option for WOL to work, just wondering if this would help.
