Wake Your PC

[xtermin8r]

Wake-on-LAN (WOL) is an Ethernet computer networking standard that allows a computer to be turned on or woken up by a network message

Magic packet.

The magic packet is a broadcast frame containing anywhere within its payload 6 bytes of all 255 (FF FF FF FF FF FF in hexadecimal), followed by sixteen repetitions of the target computer's 48-bit MAC address, for a total of 102 bytes.

Receiving the magic packet

Most WoL hardware may be configured directly using the system BIOS. However, it is often more desirable to configure the functionality without interrupting the normal operations of the machine. The BIOS step is necessary in addition to configuration from the OS in some cases.
Microsoft Windows

Modern versions of Microsoft Windows integrate WoL functionality into the Device Manager. This is available in the Power Management tab of each network device. In most cases correct BIOS configuration is also required for WoL to function.
Mac hardware (OS X)

Modern Mac hardware features integrated WoL functionality, controlled via the OS X System Preferences Energy Saver panel, in the Options tab. Marking the Wake for network access checkbox enables Wake-on-LAN.


Make sure you enable wol in your pc bios.



Make sure wol is enabled in windows.



for voxcommando see pic below
substitute xxxxxxxxxxxx with the mac address of the pc you are trying to wake up.



A fine tutorial on wol.

Hi,

Sorry guys I have weird question! I wonder if this also work as computer at sleep and also the microphone and how to set it up?

[nime5ter]

Not exactly sure what you mean, but if you're asking whether VC can wake up its own computer (?), then no.

But if you have an Android device, you can use VoxWav Pro to try to wake up your VC computer.

I don't know what you are asking with regard to the microphone.

[jitterjames]

If your computer is really sleeping(S3 sleep state) then so are all the programs that are running on it and they can't do anything.  The only way a computer can wake itself  up is with a timer.

Something like an Xbox one that can wake itself is still running a subsystem to perform recognition, and I believe is still using power too, but hopefully less than it would during normal operation.

Also, if you are having trouble expressing yourself in English, please feel free to write in any language and we can use a translation tool to read it.

Salut James,

Vraiment merci beaucoup pour ton aide et désolé pour mon anglais!!!

j'essaie de m'exprimer en anglais pour que tout le monde puisse m'aider.

Vous pouvez le voir, la traduction google fonctionne. 

Hey maxwel, take a look in the first post here -there is exact the way  

1. after your PC is ready for WOL, start VoxCommando set up the TCPmic plugin. Then start VoxWavPro and connect it with your pc. http://voxwav.wikispaces.com/Installation

2. Let VoxCommando open and drive your PC in sleepmode (S3). Start VoxWav on your android device - tab on the small "computer" icon again which will show you your last connected computer -> tab on it.

If you have everything set correct, your commputer will wake up

There are many French users of VC.  Nime5ter and I both speak French, and although I am not really comfortable writing in French, I can usually read it without a translation tool. You can always write in both languages if you prefer.

VoxWav free does not have a WOL (wake on LAN) feature, so you must use VoxWav Pro.
Not all computers can be woken this way but most can if they are properly configured.
On many newer computers WOL will work without requiring any configuration, but if it doesn't work read xtermin8r's post at the beginning of this thread.
If you have a second computer there are some good free programs you can use to send WOL messages when testing, in case you don't want to buy VoxWav pro right away.

In VoxWav Pro when you click the radio tower icon, it sends a "hello" message out to all computers on the LAN. Any computers running VoxCommando will reply with information about their name, IP, and Mac address. VoxWav stores this information. The Mac address is used to send a WOL message every time you select that computer from the list.

And by the way thanks to xtermin8r for a great post!  Better late than never...

Salut Maxwel.

Si tu veux essayer la solution VoxWav Pro, comme James et Kalle ont dit, c'est possible que tu dois simplement activer le plugin tcpMic dans le menu "Options" de VC, et puis installer VWPro. James a montré comment la communication "hello" fonctionne dans son nouveau vidéo ici: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RCZ7aGGaro&feature=youtu.be&t=1m10s.

Une fois que VW Pro est en communication avec VC, tu peux essayer de mettre ton ordinateur en veille, puis utilise VW Pro pour le réveiller.

Si cela ne fonctionne pas automatiquement, donc tu devrais suivre le premier poste de xtermin8or sur la modification des paramètres dans le bios de ton ordinateur.

[nime5ter]

... Juste pour clarifier, il y a deux apps pour Android : VoxWav Free et VoxWav Pro. Seulement la version Pro (c-à-d, pas la version gratuite) a la fonction WOL.

Les deux sont disponsibles dans le Google Playstore.

Si une solution gratuite est préférée, on peut essayer l'autre suggestion de James de chercher un outil Wake-on-LAN gratuit sur le web.

---

Just to clarify a bit, there are 2 Android apps available: VoxWav Free and VoxWav Pro. Only the Pro version includes the WOL function (i.e., not the free app).

Users who prefer a free solution may need to follow James's suggestion to find a freeware WOL tool online somewhere.

Hey folks. I have been looking for a way to wake a computer remotely that is connected via wireless to my home network. Any suggestions?

[Kalle]

Let me guess, you will wake up a notebook over wireless network with the build-in wireless adapter?

[pmdaniels73]

Yes Sir.
