The reviews are in for our free Wake-on-LAN! Hear about how Wake-on-LAN magically powers up your remote network PCs. When the remote network adapter hears a "Magic Packet" created for its unique MAC address, the network adapter alerts the computer to power up.

Semi useful utility

Pros:

Easy to Use & Intuitive, Easy to Install & Maintain, Small File Size

Cons:

Limited Feature Set
Reviewed Version 8.0
Full Review:
Useful tool for starting a single computer to pull a file from for instance. The utility is very basic. The major downsides to this utility are the lack of the ability to boot multiple computers at once and the inability to boot computers that were not shut down properly, if a computer was forced to shutdown via holding the power button down it will not start with this utility.
