Is there truly off wake-on-lan?
Posted by Genea on July 5th, 2004


Hi Group,

I'd like to build a computer that is truly off (not
sleeping/hibernating/etc), which wakes up and powers up when I signal it.

Is there a wake-on-lan device that will do this (maybe with batteries that
recharge when the machine is on, or somesuch)?

Also, can this be done via 802.11 or bluetooth?


Thanks!

-G

You can get a unit called a master-switch which has a pass-through power
chord to your computer.

You telnet into the master-switch, tell it which port to turn on/off and
it cuts/supplies power to your machine.
