Asus GT-AX6000 WOL not working properly over 2.5Gb only

[Wam7]

When I connect my PC to the standard 1Gb port then WOL works perfectly, when the PC goes to sleep or when it is shutdown for hours. If I use the 2.5Gb port then WOL only works when the PC is in sleep mode, it does not work at all when the PC is shutdown, even 2 secs after.

Does anybody have any idea why?

I have tried both the latest Merlin 388.1_rog and the latest official Asus firmware 3.0.0.4.388.22525 and it behaves the same. I would prefer to use the 2.5Gb port as I have 1.2Gb internet and would like 20% extra speed over just using the 1Gb ports.

Motherboard is an Asus Z690-A Strix D4 using latest Asus network drivers

I have the same problem with the 10G port on the AXE-16000. 1G works great, 10G doesn't work at all. The link is off (no lights on either side of the ethernet cable or on the router LEDs). Someone here has the same problem:
