The program collects MAC addresses while the computers are running and save them so that when they are turned off or in a standby mode the user can easily wake them up with a single click.

The user can also invoke the utility from the command-line to turn on the computers by specifying their IP address, MAC address or name.

  • In some Windows 7/8 systems, Wake-on-LAN does not work if the request is sent on the broadcast 255.255.255.255. If that is the case then you need to select Broadcast Address According to IP Address.
  • The utility works on Windows 2000 up to Windows 10 that includes 32-bit and 64-bit versions.
