Enable WOL in BIOS/UEFI
This is the only step WOL DualBoot cannot do for you. This version supports Wake-on-LAN over Ethernet.
BIOS/UEFI guideWOL DualBoot for Android, Windows and Linux.
Wake your PC and choose Windows or Linux from Android.
Install the agent on your PC and scan a QR code. It sets Wake-on-LAN up in the operating system, which is where everyone gets stuck, and from there you wake, shut down, restart and pick which system boots. Without the agent you can still add a computer by hand, but Wake-on-LAN is yours to configure and waking is all you get.

Local agent
Install the agent
A small program for Windows or Linux, with its icon in the system tray.

One button
The agent sets Wake-on-LAN up
It enables it in the operating system for you, with no hunting through driver properties on Windows or settings that do not survive a reboot on Linux. There it also re-enables it on every start.

Android app
Scan the QR and take control
Wake the computer, shut it down, restart it and, on dual-boot setups, boot it straight into Linux or Windows.

What the agent does on your computer, no fine print.
The agent only runs a closed list of actions: wake, shut down, restart and boot into Linux or Windows. We document its security model and publish the SHA-256 of every installer.
