Wake-on-LAN Not Working on Windows 10 Computer [Tutorial]

Your Windows 10 device can be used in different ways and for different tasks since Microsoft added useful in-built features that can ease your daily schedule.

But, maybe the most popular feature that can be used on Windows 10 is Wake-On-Lan. Unfortunately, more and more users are complaining about WOL issues, which mean that we must find a way to fix these problems.

Wake-on-LAN is an Ethernet networking standard that allows a properly configured network computer to be turned on or awakened by a network message. In this post, we will provide comprehensive solutions you can try to successfully resolve issues where Wake-on-LAN (WOL) is not working on your Windows 10 computer.

Wake-on-LAN (sometimes abbreviated WoL) is an industry-standard protocol for waking computers up from a very low power mode remotely. The definition of “low power mode” means while the computer is “off” and has access to a power source. This is useful if you plan to access your computer remotely for any reason: it allows you to retain access to your files and programs while keeping the PC in a low-power state.
