Wake On Lan Tool Classic : Remotely wake up or shut down a computer via the network thanks to the Wake-On-Lan feature, schedule tasks, and organize groups with different hosts
Wake On Lan Tool is an approachable software program that gives you the possibility to remotely control a computer via LAN by sending a Wake-On-LAN signal, in order to turn it on or shut it down.
Customizable setup pack
Installing the program takes minimal time and effort. Apart from the core files, it is possible to set up additional icons, documentation, UI translations, MAC address translator, and shutdown support.
Simple and intuitive interface
The interface is based on a single window with a plain and simple structure, where you can get started by scanning the local network for computers where the Wake-On-LAN feature was previously enabled from BIOS, as soon as you specify the IP address and port number. Information can be exported to file.
Scan an IP range, create groups, schedule tasks
Wake On Lan Tool lets you organize multiple hosts into different groups, schedule tasks or disable the timer later, remotely wake up or shut down a selected computer, as well as to import a previously created hosts file.
Customize host settings
As far as host settings are concerned, you can modify the name, IP address, subnet mask and address, MAC address, connection type, group, comment and icon. What's more, it is possible to enable notifications when the status changes.
Evaluation and conclusion
There were no stability issues in our tests, since the tool did not hang, crash or pop up error messages. It has a good response time and uses low CPU and RAM. On the other hand, it has not been updated for a very long time and it is not compatible with later operating systems.
