You get a message that the computer will shutdown in about one minute, which is enough time to log off. I use remote desktop in Windows 7 Professional, which works quite well. Remote desktop is also available in XP Professional. I never tried Vista.

I was about to get a timer hardware to switch my office computer on and off at set timings. My only problem was I need to turn it on at times when the hardware is set to "off". Have racked my brains over this...until I read what you've posted. A million thanks! Hi Raymond, this is really helpful.

I have been able to turn on my rack computer from within the LAN but have not been able to get it to work over the internet. I'm using wakeonlangui and am sure I have the port opened ok (ran PFPoerChecker) (I also tried using the two online WOL services... My router is a Linksys WRT54G, v.4.20.8. Have spent many hours researching the port forwarding issue and trying various things. ex. Tried disabling "Block Anonymous Inernet Requests....to no avail. Are there any other settings that I have missed? Like so many things in this arena, one piece of missing information is all you need to mess up everything:) Many thanks!

I don't know why, but I type in IP, press get mac or type that in too, and nothing..after about 30 sec it tells me that computer could not be turned on!! Do you know about this problem and how should I solve it??? P.S. I have 20 computers in LAN and I took IP and MAC manualy from each one, to be sure... Thanks in advance!!! Hi reymond,

It saved me a lot of money. I was going to buy a remote power switch and "ATX push to on" from Deltronix. Thx again. Thx my friend, your post was of great help. It saved me a lot of money.
