- Android users managing Wake-on-LAN-capable PCs
- Worth noticing
- Optional SSH shutdown uses a key kept in Android Keystore and pins each PC’s host key.
Field notes
The setup flow asks users to enable Wake-on-LAN in the PC’s BIOS or UEFI and network-card settings, then enter a device name and MAC address in the app. An IP address enables online-status checks. For remote use, the guide calls for a VPN and a router that forwards the broadcast; optional shutdown uses an Android Keystore-held SSH key and pinned host keys.
