What is Wake On LAN?

Wake On LAN

Wake On LAN is a free and open-source software application that lets you send a Wake-on-LAN signal to other computers on your network. This means you can wake them up or shut them down whenever you need to!

Simple Setup Process

Getting started with Wake On LAN is super easy! After a quick setup that doesn’t need much from you, you'll see a simple window. Here, you can add new hosts by filling in their name, MAC address, IP address, broadcast address, Netbios name, group, UDP port, and TTL. It’s all laid out for you!

Control Multiple Hosts

You can even activate emergency shutdowns or input specific shutdown commands! Want to manage several computers at once? No problem! You can add as many hosts as you want and trigger actions for all of them at the same time.

Handy Features

If plans change, you can abort shutdowns easily. Plus, there’s remote desktop mode for extra control. Use the Ping and Listen functions to monitor your devices closely. You can also schedule one-time or recurring tasks and search for all workstations in your LAN by specifying an IP range.

User-Friendly Options

Wake On LAN has more cool features too! You can export settings for later use, undo or redo any actions quickly, and even set the app to run automatically when Windows starts. If a monitored server comes online or stops responding, you'll get sound notifications too. Need to force a remote server to shut down? That’s just another click away!

Performance & Compatibility

This app supports multiple languages and has great response times while using very little CPU and RAM. So it won’t slow down your computer at all! Plus, since it minimizes to the system tray area, it won’t interrupt what you're doing.

No Issues Found

Our tests showed no problems at all! Wake On LAN didn’t hang up or crash on us—it really gets the job done when sending those Wake-on-LAN signals.
