Comment on Options for remote Wake-on-lan. Or I guess wake on WAN.

You can even use an ESP32 or similar since it just has to perform 1 tiny function.

Getting an WT32-ETH01 knockoff dev board for 15€ or PoE for 25€ and uses <300mW with the wireless modem off. You could even just use a WiFi module for 8€ if you don’t want something wired.

There is already an wakeonlan library to generate a packet very easily.

You can even do it in pseudocode with ESPHome if you have HomeAssistant

Then VPN in, send a signal to the esp using one of various methods to tell it to send the packet.

this sounds like it requires another computer already turned on

  Depends on your hardware. My routers can serve as a Wireguard serveur, so no need for a computer for that part
