Is it possible to wake a laptop from sleep?
-
I created a .cmd file that puts my laptop to sleep but I cant figure out how to wake it up using TriggerCMD. I tried Wake on Lan but that didnt seem to work on my laptop. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. My end goal is be able to turn on my laptop, PC and lights in my studio using on press on my iPhone/siri.
