Can you enable Wake-on-LAN remotely?
Quick note: The device you want to wake up remotely has to be turned on for the tool to find it. Once it is on the list, the device can be offline to use the WoL feature. You can also use the Ctrl + N keyboard shortcut to add the remote computer information (IP address, computer name, and MAC address) manually.
How do I send a Wake-on-LAN packet?
Open the Device Manager and expand the “Network Adapters” section. Right click on your network card and go to Properties, then click on the Advanced tab. Scroll down in the list to find “Wake on Magic Packet” and change the Value to “Enabled.” You can leave the other “Wake on” settings alone.
Does Wake-on-LAN work with WIFI?

Can a Raspberry Pi serve as a wake on LAN Server?
The idea is to have your Raspberry PI running 24/7 instead, as it is more power-friendly, and act as a wake on LAN server. This way when the command is received by the RPI, it will use the ethernet connection to wake up the computer in question (or any compatible device on the network).

Can a Raspberry Pi shut down or sleep?
I know the other answers say you cannot shut down or sleep the Raspberry Pi (maybe with existing OS’s), but the answer is still there is WoL in the LAN Module and that is a fact. One thing to cry about if the fact that PoE has been omitted, but luckily Raspberrians questioned this fact and it turns out.. they just forgot about it.. oops.
Is the Raspberry Pi 4B compatible with Wol?
WoL is an hardware feature that is not implemented on the Raspberry PI boards. Same thing with USB: no wake up supported Out-Of-The-Box Pi4 cannot be started by WOL But you can add some third party hardware for power management that implement WoL.
