  1. In order to use the functionality of WOL you need to make sure you have a few things covered. First your motherboard must support it and have a the 3 pin WOL adapter. The network card must also support this feature. It must also be enabled in the BIOS. Here is a really good article explain how it works

    There are many WOL software applications available. Here is a link to a free one that you can try out for yourself.
