How does DeskIn WOL work?

Notice:

1) To use Wake on Lan, there needs to be a device running DeskIn in the same LAN as the computer about to be woken up.
For example, other computers, iPhone, iPad, Android devices (mobile phones, tablets) etc. Using to assist running DeskIn.

2) Linux devices do not support sending WOL packet, and Mac and Linux devices do not support remote boot.

3) Devices that are in an abnormal shutdown state such as blue screen or crash do not support remote boot.

Step 1: Network Card Settings

1) Open Device Manager on Windows

2) Locate the Network adapters option and expand it.

3) Right-click the Intel(R) Ethernet Connection (6)1219-V and then click Properties.

4) In the next window, navigate to the Power Management Tab, and check Allow this device to wake the computer

5) Switch to Advanced tab and locate Shutdown Wake-On-Lan and Wake on Magic Packet under the Property options. Click the Value drop-down menu on the right-hand side pane and then select Enabled.

Step 2: Motherboard BIOS Settings

After entering the motherboard BIOS, locate the following options, click the drop-down menu on the right side and then select Enabled.
Power On by PCIE/PCI devices

Power On by Onboard Lan

Wake up on LAN

Resume on LAN

Power on PME

Note:

Different brands of motherboards have different names, basically the above ones.
E.g. The following screenshots were captured from Lenovo Thinkpad T490:
Navigate to [Config] > [Network], look for following settings:

1) Wake On LAN > Set to "AC Only"

2)UEFI Network Boot Priority, set it to "IPv4 First"

For some other bios such as Asus Gaming Motherboard, Navigate to Advanced tab, click APM Configuration

In the next window, select Power On By PCI-E and click the drop-down menu on the right side and then select Enabled.

Press F10 to save the settings and restart

Note:

Because the MAC address and IP address correspondence table on the router has a certain valid time. After timeout, it will no longer be able to respond. If you want to be able to remotely wake on your computer even after it has been shut down for a long time, you need one last extra step——follow step 3.

Step 3: Perform ARP Binding on the Router

For this case, we will take Asus Router AX6000 as example.

Navigate to [Network Tools] > [Wake On LAN], fill in the device MAC Address here. How to find the device MAC Address? Please check the following steps after the screenshot below:

How to Find the device MAC Address? On the device that to be woke up, go to Command Prompt and enter the command ipconfig /all

Then look for the [Ethernet adapter Ethernet] Section:

Find the [Physical Address], that is the MAC Address of the device, then fill it into the router settings according to desired format

After the setup is complete, you can try to boot the device remotely.

Note: For mobile phones that assist in booting, you need to enable remote boot support in the DeskIn settings.
