Can a PC case be turned on wirelessly?

post #1 of 30
Thread Starter 

Hey folks.

 

My case is going to be under the table when I get my new desk and to turn it on I will have to go lower move a bit forward below the desk.

 

I was wondering if there was a way to turn on the PC without the button on the case but something wireless or in some other way?

 

Thank you.

When it detects a "magic packet" on the network, it wakes up. This only works in sleep mode though, not full power-off.

Wire the 'On-Button' to the top of the desk and make ur own button? Thats what i would do. Cheap, too.
