Wake-On-LAN

Update time: 2024-10-17 22:15:42

Wake-on-LAN allows you to turn on a sleeping or shut-down computer.

Requirements

Only Windows devices support remote boot.

Have an awake computer running Avica on the same network as the sleeping/off computer.

PC BIOS supports WoL and the option has been enabled and settings on Avica have been properly set up.

Step 1. Network card settings

Open Device Manager on Windows.
Locate the Network adapters option and expand it.
Right-click the Realtek Gaming GbE Family Controller and then click Properties.
In the next window, navigate to the Power Management Tab, and check Allow this device to wake the computer.
Switch to the Advanced tab and locate Shutdown Wake-On-Lan and Wake on Magic Packet under the Property options. Click the Value drop-down menu on the right-hand pane and select Enabled.

Step 2. Motherboard BIOS Settings

After entering the motherboard BIOS, locate the following options, click the drop-down menu on the right side, and then select Enabled.

Power On by PCIE/PCI devices

Power On by Onboard Lan

Boot on LAN

Wake up on LAN

Resume on LAN

Power on PME

Note: Different brands of motherboards have different names, basically the above ones. The settings needed to activate Wake-on-LAN in the BIOS/UEFI can differ significantly and should be looked up specifically for the device on the system manufacturer's website. Take a certain ASUS motherboard as an example:

1. After booting, click the Del or Esc button to enter the system BIOS. Proceed to the Advanced Mode.

2. Navigate to the Advanced tab, and click APM Configuration.

3. In the next window, select Power On By PCI-E, click the drop-down menu on the right side, and then select Enabled.

4. Press F10 to save the settings and restart.

Step 3. Enabled the settings on Avica

Open Avica > Settings > General > enable Startup on Boot.

Step 4. Perform ARP binding on the router

Because the MAC address and IP address correspondence table on the router have a certain valid time. After the timeout, it will no longer be able to respond. If you want to be able to remotely wake your computer even after it has been shut down for a long time, you need to perform ARP binding on the router. After the setup is complete, you can try to boot the device remotely.
