However, most of the modern PCs already have this feature, you just need to enable it in BIOS/UEFI settings. Please note that if your PC doesn’t have this feature, you won’t be able to turn on your PC remotely.
A) Enable Wake-on-LAN in BIOS/UEFI Settings to Turn On your PC Remotelyįirst of all, we need to enable Wake-on-LAN feature in BIOS settings. Let’s start with setting up the BIOS first. So, in this tutorial, we are going to show you how to power on your Windows PC remotely via Wake-on-LAN. We will have to make several changes to Windows and BIOS/UEFI settings to enable Wake on LAN.

However, you may need to forward WOL port in your internet router for that. The Wake-on-LAN feature allows you to power on your Windows PC not only from LAN but also over internet. So, instead of keeping your Windows PC on all the time, you can turn it on remotely using Wake on LAN when required.
But it keeps consuming power even when it is not in use. I am beginning to suspect that the mini is different in a fundamental aspect.If you do a lot of remote work and need to access your office computer often, you might need to keep it turned on. My iMac does NOT exhibit this behavior, and starts immediately after touching the mouse- and the mouse is always active. I may possibly overcome this by scheduling the mini to wake up at 0500 every day, and deal with it at that time, but I want to provide 24/7 contact to the mini to support it. If I call my friend to start to use the computer, I find that the mini exists in my Finder. After the mini goes to sleep, it will no longer be visible in my off-site iMac finder when "back to my mac" is installed and working. Please note: The sleep adjustment is set to "NEVER".Ģ. Hitting the space bar or other key on the keyboard both wakens the mouse, and re-connects the mini to the Monitor. ( I have found the mouse to be UN powered- no red LED). I noticed locally, that after the monitor goes dark in the mini, it takes more than a slight movement of the mouse, to wake it up. I want to keep the mini awake, although it is OK to darken the screen after 15 minutes.ġ.
My friend's mini goes to "sleep" even though I have put the sleep adjustment to "never".
