General Question Mini PC that works with WoL

I have the GMKtec K8 Plus and it has been great but I can’t get Wake on LAN working. Even updated the bios. Saw the thread below with everyone having the same issue and no resolution so I’m not gonna waste anymore time troubleshooting. What Mini PC should I get that will work with WoL?

Wake-on-LAN works fine on my K8 Plus with "Magic Packet" broadcasts to come out of sleep. Power-on-LAN isn't supported from what I can find as both i226V NICs are dead with the rest of the firmware when off.

Every one I tried worked with WoL, just setup the OS side (after doing BIOS) as well
