Wake on Lan is a hardware / software solution that allows a computer to be remotely woken. A computer that has a network connection and is ACPI (Advanced Configuration Power Interface) compatible can be remotely enabled.

As a reminder, the Wake On LAN function enables remote stations to be woken up by sending a 'Magic' packet over the network. For this packet to be correctly formed, you need to indicate the MAC address of the network card on the remote computer, along with its broadcast address.

In a first, Wake on Lan must be enabled in the BIOS of the computer, and then configured in the operating system.
To enable Wake on Lan in the BIOS (below for Intel motherboards):

  1. Press F2 during boot to enter the BIOS setup.
  2. Access the power menu.
  3. Set Wake-on-LAN to turn on the power.
  4. Press F10 to save and exit the BIOS setup.

To configure Wake On Lan in Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows 10:

  6. Expand the value section and select enabled.
  7. Click Power Management tab.
  8. Select the Allow this device to wake the computer check box.
  9. Click OK.

To configure Wake On Lan in Windows XP:

  4. Expand the Network Adapters section.
