This is the small control box that can wake up the PC using Wake On LAN. You can just push a button, PCs will wake up from the power off.

Every morning I had to press the power button at the back to boot up my PC; I wanted to be able to use Wake On LAN to boot up, but having to boot up another PC to do so was nonsense. So we created a Box that sends Wake On LAN packets with a single button. It’s pretty cute, isn’t it?

This is the small control box that can wake up the PC using Wake On LAN. You can just push a button, PCs will wake up from the power off status. There is no need to start up another PC in order to start up a PC with Wake On Lan. Wake on LAN packets are sent via WiFi LAN. The Box has a battery, and you can charge it from a USB Type-C port. Once charging full, you can use it for a month. (sorry I guess, because I still measure the consumption) If any buttons are not pressed for the specified time (default 30 seconds), the box will sleep automatically and conserve battery power. Up to four PCs can be registered.

This box can send a Wake on LAN packet to the Wireless Access Point. To transfer the packet, Access Point need to be set Bridge Mode. If Router Mode is set, Access Point won’t transfer the packet to the wired LAN.
