Post by: kcmartz on June 29, 2012, 09:21:08 AM

I would like to wake my laptop up from sleep/powered off. Can Teamviewer personal do this?

I found out I can use LogMeIn to turn it on (normally, my BIOS does not support it :/) then log in via teamviewer. So others' BIOSes who do support it can do this to remotely turn on, then remote control their pc!

If LogMeIn can do it, then other utilities should be able to aswell.  I achieve this by using WOL Magic Packet Sender, but there is some port forwarding required if you plan to do this outside of the network in which this laptop resides.
