WakeMeOnLan for Windows

Windows Free Wake-on Lan Utility

WakeMeOnLan, a free Wake on-Lan (WoL), tool that allows you to wake up your computer from a remote location. This utility is often included in programs such as SoftPerfect Network Scanner or Manage Engine Free. You can access your device from anywhere, even if you aren't at work or home. It is also necessary to set up your BIOS correctly in order for it to work.

The tool starts by collecting the MAC addresses for all devices on the network. It is important that you only use wired connections. This tool doesn't support wireless computers or laptops. Once the devices are connected, it is possible to wake them up from any location via internet.

Many apps and programs allow you to access your computer from another location. This allows you to view and send files. It only works if your computer can be woken up to log in to Windows. WakeMeOnLan can help configure the settings for some devices.

WakeMeOnLan gathers the MAC addresses of your network to make this process work. The interface provides basic information and allows you to keep track of the addresses so you can access them when you need to wake the computers. The BIOS will show you if the WoL feature has been enabled.

WakeMeOnLan's most important requirement is that it be connected to the internet using a LAN cable. This is why the tool's name. The utility won't add MAC addresses to any wirelessly connected computers or laptops.

WakeMeOnLan can be used to remotely access your computer, but you must first wake it up. Although it has simple settings and does not require complex configurations, not all devices can use this feature. Depending on your sleep state, there are remote-viewing programs such as TeamViewer that can also perform this function.
