Title: Music Server remote and startup via WakeOnLan Post by: Arjan on February 19, 2016, 09:35:05 pm Hi All,
Not sure if others are using this as well, but I have my Music Server (old desktop pc) now remote in the electric cupboard (meterkast) near the router. It is headless and goes to sleep when not used. Via WakeOnLan I start it from my laptop and next via RDP I can work on it and connect to the Audio PC. SQ is the same but having the Music Server remote and out of sight makes it convenient. I had to add a second LAN card, that was all. regards, Arjan Title: Re: Music Server remote and startup via WakeOnLan Post by: Stanray on February 20, 2016, 11:41:32 am Good idea Arjan.
I control my Music Server PC from my iPad and I see similar WOL apps exist for IOS. Will try it this weekend. Regards, Stanley Title: Re: Music Server remote and startup via WakeOnLan Post by: Stanray on February 20, 2016, 12:25:13 pm Just did.
Mocha WOL works great. iPad connects via wifi to router and wakes up Music server PC via LAN. Configuration only needs MAC adres of PC. :veryhappy: |
