Description

WOL (Wake-On-LAN) Magic Packet Sender is a network administration application that allows users to wake up a computer from a remote location. This application works by sending a special type of data packet called a "Magic Packet" to a specific computer on the network. The Magic Packet contains the IP address of the computer to be woken up, as well as a unique media access control (MAC) address. When the Magic Packet is received by the computer, it is then instructed to turn on. This makes WOL Magic Packet Sender a useful tool for IT administrators who need to remotely access computers that are in a powered-down state. This application can also be used to perform tasks such as software updates, troubleshooting, and system maintenance.
