Wake on lan?

L

Linn Kubler

Hi,

I am wondering, how do you use the wake on lan feature of a Windows XP
system? I would like to be able to use my system remotely but don't want to
have to leave it running all the time. It would much nicer if I could
remotely wake it up too.

Thanks in advance,
Linn

I believe you need to forward UDP Port 9 through any firewall/router if your
behind one...

Good luck...
