AWIECO WakeOnLAN add-in for Windows Home Server 2011 and Small Business Server 2011 Essentials is a free and useful add-in, which has the ability to remotely turn on a computer. It enables the Server to start up every computer attached to your network. You can also power off a computer out of the Launchpad. The gadget on the WHS or SBS web-interface shows a list of all available and connected computers within your network and provides the possibility to start them up from any location inside your network or via internet, by just one mouse click. You can add further computers to your network manually by entering the MAC address or even delete them. The add-in automatically recognises if a computer is already turned on or if it is booting up.

Tim has done a number of posts and videos on WakeOnLAN, so you might want to refresh your memory.

Here is what the changelog says:

• Improved: Windows Home Server 2011 RC support
• Improved: Client shut down over Launchpad

I know that Tim is working on a new video so keep watching UWHS!
