Hello, I have a desktop PC with the mobo Asus X79-Deluxe.

I need to find a system to turn on the computer remotely. I'm not sure how WOL works when not in Lan...

The pc is connected to a Cisco ISR 851w router. Is it possible to WOL the computer remotely? Maybe doing some port forwarding on the rooter? If yes what port? Or maybe I just have to connect to the router remotely and send some command from that router?

Thanks
