A friend of mine asked me if it was possible, as far as I know it isn't. I have a Acer 3610 with XBMC live installed.

DO you mean via remote or from another PC?

I can turn on my Revo remotely via WOL and via remote with a USB IR receiver.

To clarify, from the remote I can only wake it from sleep, not from a completely powered off state, but I have mine set to just do sleep since it is fully functional from waking from sleep in only a few seconds as opposed to a cold boot. For wake on lan, that should be possible when the system is powered down completely. http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Ena...-On-Device For wake on lan, you have to enable it in the BIOS and configure it in linux: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=234588 |

Definitely possible using Wake-On-Lan, assuming the Acer 3610 is using wired ethernet and it's turned off. I use the free Wake On Lan Ex 2. Great piece of software for WOL. You just need to know your Acer's MAC address. It's even possible to wake devices over the internet if you have the correct port(s) forwarded on your router. |

Thanks for the replies guys, yeah I assumed the IR remote woulnd't turn it on unless it was on sleep. So WOL, my question is, is the only possible way to do that through my PC? as if I have to turn on my pc to turn on my revo, I might aswell just turn on the revo amirite?
There are a few WOL apps for the iPhone, was wondering if anyone here tried em out? |

The WOL apps should work fine. I use one for my android phone and can wake my boxes. |
