In this way we will no longer have the Wake-on-LAN feature running in Windows 11. If at any given time we are interested in disabling this function, we will simply have to follow the same steps but this time uncheck the boxes that we have activated. It is a quick and simple process, where we will only have to make sure that we have these parameters activated and that our BIOS and network card are compatible, something that today is common that they are. With this done, we will have Windows 11 ready to be able to turn it on remotely. It is a 6-byte string with a value of 255 and followed by 16 repetitions with the MAC address of the destination computer to which we are going to send it to start. This package that we refer to is known as Magic Packet. Keep in mind that in some routers we can have problems and that it does not work well, but most of the current devices are perfectly compatible.
When we have all this configured, we will be able to use Wake-on-LAN and turn on the computer remotely. Make sure to correctly save the changes in the BIOS to take effect, since if we restart without saving the changes it will not do any good. We will see the Wake on LAN option and we have to give it to enable in case it is disabled as standard. Regarding the BIOS, it will depend on the exact model but generally we must go to the parameters related to the network card and enable it there. In addition to these two basic points that we have indicated, it is necessary to have the BIOS configured and also Windows to be able to use this function. It is also necessary that the motherboard of the computer supports Wake-on-LAN. Logically, for this to happen, the equipment must be connected to the network. When that card receives the packet, it starts the process of turning on the computer. Each network card has a MAC address that identifies it within the local network.
