Literally the only tutorial that got it right!
Thanks!
I don't know if you keep seeing comments of this video, but I wanted to say thank u! That's the only video that work for me after 8 years, I really appreciate it :)
Thye removed this feature from new team vieer free versions
thanks a bunch dude, super helpful. I had to watch 7 other videos until I got to this one, which was the only one that worked so I could turn on my pc remotely. cheers mate.
That's great! Especially since the video was created with a much older version of TeamViewer than what's available now :)
Thanks for the explanation. This makes it clear to me.
One remark: If I see how you arranged your icons on the desktop, don't you know the programm Fences? (Software from Stardock) I think you will like it.
THANK YOU! You are awesome, I followed the whole video and then had to go watch another video on how to setup my own static network but after all that I finally got it sweet thanks!
Thank you so much. This video helped me so much!!!
Hi Jerry. Thanks for the video. Do you recommend TCP or UDP for this?
When you did set the port forwarding rule to UDP it switched to TCP for some reason. Thanks for this video and for your help.
small tip: at 3:26 ... you're looking for "WAN IP Address (IPv4)" or something along those lines somewhere in your router. at least that's what worked for me.
good video
Great Video! Helped me a lot although i did get stuck on a couple of parts because i was setting up the Remote settings on the remote computer(since i wanted to turn on my computer from my Ipad). I just wanted to clarify what I did incase anyone has the same problems.
1 - @1:55 During port forwarding I used the STATIC IP of my remote computer.
2 - @3:39 Incoming LAN connection is set to Deactivated by default, in this video it is set to activated so i set it to activated. I used the EXTERNAL IP for the remote router, DON'T use the routers internal IP because it will not work.
Now everything works fine for me and I can turn on and control my computer with my Ipad. Thanks for the video helped alot!
You and the Video helped me a lot but for some i reason it still doesnt work if i want to wake up my pc from another network. I did everything like in the Video and finally found my external router ip, which in my case it calls WAN. I dont know what i did wrong could you help me?
Many thanks for the tutorial! I've encountered a problem waking the computer and i've solved the problem by installing an android app called Wake on lan just to wake the PC and then connect with TeamViewer.
very useful video... Thanks!
Thank you So Much!!! i got this!! Very helpful tutorial !!!👍
Thanks for the video
I have a question please
I use in my home DHCP (no assigned IPs for devices) what should I do to fill the router and Team Viewer options in my case?
You added port forwarding as TCP by the way. Viewers, please add port forwarding with the UDP protocol.
This solved the problem I was having. :DD
the teamviewer section is for client side or host side?
Amazing video dude! Btw can you turn on your pc even if you aren't on the same network?
Hi Jerry, awesome tutorial. Could you do one with the last version of Teamviewer? Many thanks
Hi Alessandro. It's on my list of videos to produce, but it's a long list and I don't have a ton of time so I can't tell you when it will be done. Happy New Year :)
Teamviewer 10 does NOT accept a local IP for Wake On Lan.
If this isnt working, go to device manager, network adapters, right click on ethernet or your wireless card, properties, power management, enable magic packet. Then follow the steps in the vid. Use the contacts tab on teamviewer to wake up your computer. Works if you have no Wake on Lan in bios 👍🏻
Ty a lot, after some back and forth I got it working with Port 7 tho instead of 9. I have no clue what the difference is tbh (using a fritzbox).
That intro is bloody hilarious.
is there any way to wake it up from being off as in not in sleep mode just flatout off
I am using tplink router, though I found my public address on the main page of my router's configuration page. Anyway, thanks you a lot, eventually I did it :)
And it actually NEEDS to be hardwired, because with wifi it doesn't work for me
I'm also now having the same problem with windows 10, the strange thing is i had WOL on windows 10 working with a public address a few weeks ago, but now seems to have stopped working, and trying to save any changes returns "'Failed to store the Wake-On-Lan settings", I've opened a ticket with teamviewer and am awaiting a response....
To Jebble - for some reason you were able to comment on this and I am unable to respond (there is no "Reply" link). Your statement "Teamviewer 10 does NOT accept a local IP for Wake On Lan" is not really relevant here. Nowhere in the video do I have you use a local IP except in your ROUTER, which you must specify the local IP of the machine you want to connect to and the PORT for the port forward. In TeamViewer settings, you use the Public Facing IP Address of your Router and Port number. I hope this clears up any confusion.
Does your computers are on different networks
This would work only with a single computer as it will bind port 9 with a single static address.... what if you have more two or three PCs on your LAN?
Thank you for the video. But I have a question, is this tutorial to turn on the PC from outside my home network ? should I need a server like a raspi ?
If the PC goes to sleep, you can't access it with TeamViewer unless you do this configuration. It doesn't matter if the computer is right next to you or in another country. PS - this video is pretty old. I'm not sure if it's even valid anymore. Good luck.
WOL was working fine for months with Team Viewer. The last days, computer doesn't turn on. But it turns on with an app on my phone. Does anyone knows what might be the problem? I didn't make any changes at Team Viewer.
Small tip: for me to get it to work I had to change my network settings in Windows settings to private from public. Sounds weird, but public is actually more restrictive. When you're on private settings it assumes your pc will be at home on a private network, which it is.
how did you that? I can wake it up if i am at same wifi network. Otherwise it doesn't open.
@@ersinbardakc sorry buddy, no idea
Hi, great tutorial.
One question, what do you need to fill in the box saying 'Address', in the WOL dialogue? Just the IP address we use to access the router settings?
Use the Public Facing IP Address of your Router and the Port# you set up on the Router for the UDP Port Forwarding.
AppDataWorks, LLC Thank you for your reply.
I cannot find such an IP address. It's the same as the External IP Address, right?
And in my router it says it gets the IP dynamically from my internet provider.
What should I fill in then?
Thanks in advance.
Roberto's Games Your router should show you the WAN IP Address even if it's dynamically assigned. If it doesn't, you can find it out by searching "how to find my ip address" on Google. It should come right up at the top of search results. Your ISP does dynamically assign your IP address but it is unlikely to change often. One thing you can do is write it down and then check it periodically. When it changes, change the settings in Teamviewer. This is how I do it.
AppDataWorks, LLC Hi, thanks again for the reply.
I'm sorry, but I can't find anything under WAN. In the WAN Set-Up panel, all I see are a bunch of check-boxes, nothing else.
I do know my target computers internal and external IP and I know my routers internal IP, however, I don't know the router's external IP. That is the one I am looking for, right?
I tried filling in the IP I get from 'whatsmyip.org', but that doesn't work.
WOL does work when I use the 'in the same network' option in TM.
Is there anyway of checking whether a port is properly being forwarded?
Thanks in adanvce, I hope you're willing to take the time to reply.
Roberto's Games Hi - I think maybe you are getting confused a bit. Let me try and simplify.
On the PC you are configuring to be reached and to wake up if it's sleeping when you try to reach it from outside the firewall, you configure the router and port forwarding, then configure the wake-on-lan settings in TeamViewer ON THE PC YOU ARE CONFIGURING TO BE WOKEN UP AND REACHED. This is important. Everything I did in this video was done on the PC that I was configuring to wake up from sleep if I try and connect from SOMEWHERE ELSE with Teamviewer. So if you know the Target PC's external IP, it's the Target PC that you are configuring, the Router at the Target PC's location gets the port forwarding. In this example, if you are trying to reach your home PC from work, you configure the Router at Home for port forwarding, specifying the INTERNAL IP of the machine being configured and port #. On TeamViewer on that home PC, you configure the EXTERNAL IP and Port Number in the TeamViewer settings.
Then from work, you connect to your home PC. If it's sleeping, you wake it up first following the instructions at the end of the video.
FYI if you don't know the external IP address of the TARGET computer, you need to do a google search using the target computer - search for "how to find my ip address" or "what is my ip address" and the search results will automatically tell you as the very first search result at the top of the page.
Beyond this, I can't help.
what if i am at work and i want to turn on (as not wake up) my pc at home, is it possible ??
it is, but your LAN card and your BIOS need to support this option, LAN card needs to receive power even after PC is off, otherwise it won't receive magic packet that wakes PC up
I don’t really like team viewer so I went down the remote copying rcp route
Hi !
I've done step by step your tutorial, my target machine is Ubuntu and my other machine is running on OSX the last version. I think I've configured correctly and I've changed setting on the BIOS as well, even I can see "wake up" on the team viewer menu. It seems whenever I push Wake up It sends a wake up packet but the target machine doesn't respond. Do you have any idea what I have to do?
I'm strictly Windows. I know zero about Ubuntu or OSX. However, if you didn't configure the router, your wake up packets won't get through to the target machine.
Thanks
I've tried this several times. Every time I click 'wake up' in Teamviewer on another PC it just causes the remote PC to turn off. Help!
Hi! Can you wake the pc up when it is shut down?
Awesome!
Also, I've been trying to do the same thing on Ubuntu. Its the same screen and IP addresses, however it doesn't wake up the system
Ok for my port forwarding I have Global port range 0 - 0 then right below I have a Local port with one box I put a 9 should I put one 9 in global and one in Local?
All of that is covered in the video :)
hi,
iwould like to ask is this computer must be at the same network.?
or you can wake on lan an computer around the world which has just internet.?
Well, I only use this method to be able to connect to my work computer from home and my home computer from work. However, I can't see any reason why you can't connect to your home computer in the USA from a hotel in France. All you need to have is TeamViewer running on the target machine, have TeamViewer configured for Wake-On-Lan, have your computer's BIOS configured to allow Wake-On-Lan, and configure the port forwarding on your router. Just follow the video.
One question. Or that is only for local network (on home network) or work with any network (anywhere) ?
It's only necessary if you're allowing the PC you want to reach to go into sleep mode. If you do have a PC with TeamViewer on it, and you allow Sleep Mode, then you can wake that PC up from anywhere with TeamViewer logged into the same account. The caveat is that you have to have TeamViewer installed on both PC's and logged in to the same TeamViewer account (or you have the access code for the target PC). Many companies do not allow TeamViewer to be installed on company PC's. Mine doesn't allow it, so I can use my personal laptop at work logged into the public WiFi and that works fine.
Can you use your phone to wake up your computer
Can you use the WOL when your PC is completely shutdown?
trinhk Good question. I think I remember seeing somewhere that some BIOS's have a setting to allow the computer to be started with a WOL Magic Packet. You would have to do some investigating. I know my PC won't start up from a cold shutdown with WOL.
I know this is very late, but the answer is yes.^^
As said, you have to turn it on in the bias, enable anything WOL in your network card, as well as disable green ethernet and energy efficiency related stuff.
(I'm writing this in case someone else comes along, like I did)
Fun fact, all the sites said to turn off "fast startup" and "allowing the computer to turn off this device", but it literally only works for me on Windows 10 if they are turned on.
You got it working in Windows 10 from the computer being shutdown and not sleep/hibernate? I'm trying to do this right now. Did you have to configure any router settings?
Well, yeah. Port-forwarding, obviously.
The shutdown mode with which it is possible is the one you have when you click it in the start menu. To be more specific, it's called hybrid shutdown (this allows fast boot). The CMD command for this would be "shutdown /s /hybrid". (I know this because I use eventghost to control my PC with my phone and this was the only type of shutdown that allowed WOL afterwards)
In the network card settings you have to turn off anything that includes efficiency or green under advanced. HOWEVER, you have to leave everything checked in the power management section. (I'm not exactly sure about the last one - the one about magic packets - I tried it both checked and unchecked and it didn't change anything.)
It should be noted that if you want to turn on your PC from outside your home network (e.g. the bar on the other side of town) there is an issue: you probably have a private Internet plan as opposed to a business plan. What that means is that you have a dynamic IP address rather than a static one.
To circumvent this problem you need to set up a dynamic DNS (there are multiple websites who let you do this for free), most routers have the ability to automatically update the IP that way. Instead of an IP address you enter the domain in the field, it should be something like yourwordofchoice.ddns.net or .dtdns.net or .flot.net or whatever.
Ok I got it to work and everything is good but it only works right after I put it in sleep mode so like after it being sleep for like an hour it doesn’t wake up!! Any advise for this??
If your PC is going into Hibernation, I don't think it will wake up. Check your power settings. Maybe it goes to sleep after X minutes then goes into Hibernation after X minutes. I only allow laptops to go into Hibernation and only when on battery to conserve battery. But if it's an "always on" PC, then I turn off Hibernation completely.
Hey why the WakeUp button does not showing in my Teamviewer?
bro can you help via remote desktop to set up this? let me know
Hi Angel - no I'm sorry I don't do any consulting in this area. Also, this is an old video and you may have different settings that aren't addressed in this video. Good luck.
Is this require internet connection even if two pc connected to same router?
I need my another pc should work through my laptop...
I tried so much using rdp...
But still not working...😞
Sorry I did not respond to this when you posted it. OK you DO NOT need to do this for computers on the same network. BUT the computers have to have Remote Desktop turned on. Especially the target computer. You should be able to access it by name on your network.
I'm on Windows 10, using a Netgear router. I have everything set up like you show, except for the DHCP step (I don't have that same page). On my router the DHCP setting only appears in the LAN page. The router is, however, remotely accessible through my public ip and port 8080. I have the port forwarded, I have the port enabled in the firewall of the host computer, I've enabled all the WOL settings. When I go to enter the public ip and chosen port (I went with 19 since 7-9 might not work because I'm unable to install the 'simple TCPIP services') TeamViewer says 'Failed to store the Wake-On-Lan settings. Please try again.' Any ideas?
+pavichokche I also seem unable to get the local wake on lan going by entering the teamviewer ID of another computer. Gives the same failed message.
+pavichokche I'm having the same issue :( Googling the error returns nothing except this video and only because of your comment. It must be a new or rare issue.
+pavichokche I don't have Windows 10 installed on any of my machines, so I can't really help with this. But I can tell you that forwarding port 8080 isn't going to work. Forwarding port 8080 will try and reach an HTTP SERVER (web server) on the machine whose IP address you are forwarding to. Remember WAKE ON LAN must be enabled in the BIOS. The Port number you use in the Router can be anything except reserver port numbers (80, 8080, etc.). Port 9 should be set up in the router as the incoming port, and the same port number should be set in the router along with the INTERNAL IP ADDRESS of the computer you are trying to reach from the outside world. It won't work if your PC has a dynamic IP address set through DHCP on the router. Once you set up the Router, then you just set up your TeamViewer installation on the TARGET computer with the same port number that you set up in the router's port forwarding.
I have watched about 5+ videos on how to set up Wake on LAN, and I still cannot successfully do it. Can someone please help me?
One question , what if i have not any dhcp server or dns server ...
what i have to do ? I absolutely need a server for money ?
I don't understand the question. You don't need a dhcp server or dns server for this. Just the TeamViewer software and your router.
Check out my latest Tech Video: How to set up #TeamViewer for Wake On Lan
the ip of your router is DHCP, which means after you cycle the power , the ip address might be differnet, Ehternet provider might assing different IP address to router. How Team Veiwer suppose to work in this case?
+Hayk Azizbekyan TeamViewer client is logged in to your account on the target machine. That's it. No public facing IP address is involved in this.
+AppDataWorks, LLC - Hayk is referring to the IP of the router (public nat address for PC) being DHCP with provider, you have to pay extra to most providers to have a static external address for your routers public address. At least with Comcast where I live you do, its a few extra bucks a month. Otherwise it COULD change when router reboots. You mention this in your first comment where you say " you use the Public Facing IP Address of your Router and Port number" then you contradict above where you say "That's it. No public facing IP address is involved in this." But actually there is. Anyway..... good video, thanks for the tips.
I filled in the IP adress of my router and I get the message "Please make sure that the entered data is valid." I checked my IP adress in my router and it is correct (same IP adress as my Default Gateway & DNS Server). Am I missing something?
Thank You so much :)
what Teamviewer versions have wake on LANfeature?...ver 7 does not have it....or were your video says it is.
I currently have version 11.x I don't recall what version I had when I made the video, but I believe all you have to do is download the latest version. It's free for personal use (or at least it was last time I checked).
7 has no pop up ads...hows version 11 on annoying pop ups?
so basically the computer is always on right?
Agreed . .
problem this dosent work for me Edit1:Solution at the bottom
there the differance
i got a direct connection to the second pc with a crossover cable and a bridged connection within windows adapter setting
i do have a router from main pc to internet but its not possible to make it go throuth the router for my need as the router is way too slow
2nd pc should have WOL enabled i did the router firewall thing just in case
2nd pc spec sabertooth x58, i7 950, 6gb ram 3x2gb, router (dual link) Dir-815
main pc GA-Z97X-Gaming 5 (rev. 1.0), 32gb ram, i5 4690k
any idea ? i am all hear
followed all step here
tried to wake up the 2nd when hibernating
Edit1: you better use your main pc teamviewer ID in the pc you try to wake on lan than use this method
This is specifically for connecting over the internet to your home computer or work computer from a remote computer, using Remote Desktop.
ok, so when I want to wake the computer up them I have to do this from my own network at home. What if I was at Starbucks and I need to connect to this computer, i can't do it because I don't know that router's information right. For instance I'm setting up my girlfriends laptop, she lives in denver but I can set her up and wake her computer if it is a sleep if I'm at home, but what if I wasn't, I'm at a coffee shop and I need to get to her computer what can I do?
Danl, if you have TeamViewer installed on your laptop and you're logged in to your TeamViewer account, you can take that laptop anywhere you want to, and as long as you are connected to the internet and the target computer also has TeamViewer installed and you've saved the connection on your laptop, you can connect to that computer. You don't need to know the router's information, that's the beauty of TeamViewer. Each machine needs to have TeamViewer installed, and in order to connect to another computer you just need the machine id and key.
Just out of curiosity, why port 9?
You know, I don't remember. It's been 4 years and I still have it set up this way. It think it's just random. I basically created the video from their own instructions.
So the home PC is in sleep mode with its teamviewer open? What happens if you restart the home PC?
In my case if I remotely restart my computer, I'm stuck at the login page because teamviewer doesn't open until I've logged in.
Well, this question is outside of the scope of the intent of the video, but let me make this suggestion: Are you sure you can't connect with teamviewer without logging in? It runs as a background service. I haven't tried it but if it's a background service it starts and runs when the machine starts and logs in with it's own credentials. It would be simple for me to try this because I have two computers right here in the office with TeamViewer on them. The other alternative is to have your computer automatically log on to the user account that would normally be logging on. I only have one profile on my machines so I would have it log in as me. This article tells you exactly how to do it: technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ee872306.aspx
AppDataWorks, LLC It's actually a lab computer for data collecting. So, out of safety concerns, we do not want automatic logon. I tried on my laptop which requires logon and it seems that Teamviewer doesn't startup until windows is logged in.
Though I haven't done that, I'm guessing configuring it in BIOS may help. What's a concern for me is that I may not be allowed to do this due to the fact that I don't own this specific computer. But anyway, thanks for the help :D
Wenguang Jiang In Teamviewer, at the top click Extras and then Options. There is a checkbox on the General tab: "Start TeamViewer with Windows". This registers TeamViewer as a system service and according to the documentation, it will allow TeamViewer to run without logging into Windows. This lets you establish a remote control session without logging in on the target PC.
AppDataWorks, LLC
I just realize that it's not caused by teamviewer not starting before login, but because that the laptop is not connected to wifi before login. Thanks though.
Does this work with wifi? Or just on ethernet
Hi - hardwired or wireless, it shouldn't matter. You need to make sure your network adapter is capable of wake on lan. Follow the exact same configuration steps.
I am so stuck. I think this might just be a paid feature now. I can't actually find the answer but I think in version 14 there is no wake button. You have to be able to access the 'computers and contacts' tab in order to wake a PC. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.
Scratch that, found the wake button. Your email needs to be verified to access the computers and contacts tab. I still cant this to work hella frustrating, try again in a few days.
Normally the public IP changes regularly, doesn't it? Then why does this method work? I'm a little confused.
I'm not sure about your ISP, but my public IP which is dynamically assigned by Spectrum, rarely changes. I've never had a problem with this. The TeamViewer account along with the registered client is all I've ever needed to make this work.
Jerry Boutot Official I have a raspberry running 24/7 with teamviewer, so I took the other option in teamviewer. But thanks for the quick reply! Some years ago 😂
@@schubertma You're welcome. TH-cam has your question as 16 hours ago, not years ago... strange... anyway glad you have a solution :)
Jerry Boutot Official sorry that was not what I meant, you answered quickly though the video was uploaded years ago ;-) often you cannot expect an answer because the video is too old.
my router has
mac filtering
ip and port filtering
port forwarding
port triggering
dmz
wps
DHCP
UPnP
but absolutely nothing about virtual servers ??
Virtual servers is exactly the same as port forwarding
@@patrykmakowski5362 if that information is correct god bless u my friend idk what i was trying to do but ima get right back into it
@Kwstas Western thx bro
can you wake your computer up from a complete shut down state?
Dave Rickards it depends on if your hardware is able to do that. You'll have to do some research. However, Macs are not able to power up from a completely shut-down state.
Seriously. I hate it that people assume everyone knows how to set up internet connections, ip things and stuff like that. I don't know that. That is why I came to this video. I can't find how to do all of that anywhere.
this does not work for windows 10 been drving myself crazy all day trying to set this shit up. sucks
Same here. A real bummer. I followed all the instructions and still didn't work for me
The public address doesn't accept an IP address no matter what regardless of if its the routers or computers
Im Lost. My version of teamviewer doesn't have "extras" or that other stuff. You would think Teamviewer would have a more userfriendly way to set this up....smh
1:15 Skip here if you already know *why* you want this
Hahaha thanks - I know - I ramble on for a while there. That's why no one should create any videos like this without a script LOL. Have a great day!
wat
woopsie, on 4:29 you showed your connection data during a few frames, cut it out!
