Weirdly I've found with some (x86/x64) machines that their Wake-on-LAN doesn't work after a power loss.
But could probably use a similar idea to signal the power button with a pi or esp32?
- doubled112 3y agoI have a couple of Ryzen machines like that. They need a power button press to power on the NIC. As long as WoL is enabled everywhere, the NIC will stay on until they lose power again.
- hattmall 3y agoA switchbot might also be an option.
- kijin 3y agoYou don't even need to press a physical switch. Anything that can short a jumper on the motherboard would be enough.
- zh3 3y agoOn linux I find it's usually necessary to enable WoL on boot with 'ethtool -s eth0 wol g' (you can check the current state of all most wakeup stuff with 'cat /proc/acpi/wakeup').
