Dead Simple Wake-on-LAN for Your Windows Server at Home
Having a server at home is a great luxury, but having a computer running 24x7 is an extreme waste of energy. Turning it on and off manually is not very appealing, either. Luckily we have to do neither. Windows can easily be configured to put the computer into sleep mode (where modern PCs consume approx. 1 Watt) and have it wake up upon access.
