Comment on How do I implement wake up on lan (WoL)?

I was using windows desktop machines with teamviewer and anydesk and both could wol without port forwarding. Recently I switched to linux and rustdesk and I couldnt figure out how to do the same. So I got workaround, using upsnap docker container that has simple gui with button to turn on devices over wol. So i login to upsnap, turn on machine and then login with remote control. Still looking for all in one solution. I use wireguard to connect to upsnap (wg port open) but Im using it for other services as well.
Other than bios, I remember I had to enable WOL in windows to make it work, not sure is it different for win server.

I’m using Windows pro, sorry for not clarifying on the post, just regular windows. I use the server mostly as my personal PC, if I wanted to manage a server, I’d switch to Linux lol. Only reason for Windows is gaming. How would I implement wireguard without an additional PC?

No way Im afraid, but if your mobo allows WOL you should be able to use it with windows and anydesk or teamviewer. Make sure you enable WOL in windows. Iirc you have to open network adapter properties to enable magic packets. Also bios settings, but you said that you enabled it there
