          <p>mRemoteNG is a fork of mRemote: an open source, tabbed, multi-protocol, remote connections manager for Windows. mRemoteNG creates a tabbed interface for RDP, VNC, SSH and many other connection protocols.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Creating the WOL External Tool</h2>

<ol>
	<li>Download WakeMeOnLAN Utility&nbsp;<a href="https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/wake_on_lan.html#DownloadLinks" target="_blank">Download</a></li>
	<li>Extract MakeMeOnLAN.zip</li>
	<li>Copy WakeMeOnLan.exe to the mRemoteNG installation directory, usually C:\Program Files (x86)\mRemoteNG</li>
	<li>Launch mRemoteNG</li>
	<li>Hover over the Connections tab&nbsp;&gt; Select an existing connection to modify</li>
	<li>With the connection highlighted, click the Config tab</li>
	<li>At the bottom under the Miscellaneous heading, enter the hosts&nbsp;MAC address</li>
	<li>Click Tools&nbsp;&gt; External Tools</li>
	<li>Click the New Button at the top left</li>
	<li>Set the following values to add the ability to quickly send a WOL packet. Replace the broadcast address (192.168.0.255) with the correct broadcast address for the subnet of your network
	<p>Display Name: WOL<br />
	Filename:&nbsp;.\WakeMeOnLan.exe<br />
	Arguments:&nbsp;/wakeup %macaddress% 7 10.10.27.255</p>
	</li>
</ol>

<h2>Testing WOL</h2>

<ol>
	<li>Download&nbsp;WakeOnLanMonitor tool <a href="https://www.depicus.com/wake-on-lan/wake-on-lan-monitor" target="_blank">Download</a></li>
	<li>Extract wakeonlanmonitor.zip on the target WOL machine</li>
	<li>Launch WakeOnLanMonitor</li>
	<li>Set the UDP port value to 7</li>
	<li>Click the Start button&nbsp;</li>
	<li>Allow the connection if you are prompted with a firewall notification</li>
	<li>From mRemoteNG, right click on the Connection &gt; External Tools &gt; WOL</li>
	<li>On the target machine, WakeOnLanMonitor should display the packet details if the WOL packet was successfully sent and received by the target</li>
</ol>

<p>Wake on LAN is very useful functionality if your hardware supports it. Here is a good tutorial on the steps required to enable WOL on a device. This typically needs to be enabled in the BIOS as well as on the network interface inside the operating system.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lifewire.com/wake-on-lan-4149800" target="_blank">https://www.lifewire.com/wake-on-lan-4149800</a></p>
