Application Details:

WOLPacket is a small background application that will send a magic packet to wake up a remote computer.

Useful if you have a file server that you allow to sleep when not in use. WOLPacket will send a packet whenever Mediacentre is first started, or you can use the Tile in the Program Library to resend.

Usage:

1. Edit the settings.xml file stored in Program Files\WOLPacket to include the MAC address of the PC you want to wake.

2. If you don't want a confirmation popup, set the <popup> flag to false.
