Enabling the Wake on LAN function allows a sleeping computer to be awakened by a special network command. To ensure that this function is set to “on” or “enabled,” you’ll have to edit the computer’s Basic Input-Output System. The BIOS loads shortly after a computer is powered on, and coordinates communication between the hardware and operating system. Before the operating system loads, you need to push a special key to enter the BIOS. Different BIOSs have different menus to navigate, but most Wake on LAN settings are found under the BIOS power management section. Tips Warnings Writer Bio
