MiniWOL is almost identical for Windows and MacOS X, but there are minor differences as can be seen in the screenshots below. Unzip the downloaded file and drag the application into your “ Applications” folder.

Right click “miniWOL.exe” and choose “Create Shortcut” – this will create a shortcut, most likely on your Desktop.įor MacOS X, this has been tested with Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan), but I suspect it will work on any Intel based Mac.

Extract “miniWOL.exe” from the ZIP file and place it in the new folder “C:\Program Files (x86)\miniWOL”.

Create a folder “miniWOL” in “C:\Program Files (x86)”.

I prefer to install my applications in the proper folders so, I’d follow these steps: The easiest way to install this would be just running it from your Downloads folder or Desktop, but it can be done a little cleaner. MiniWOL is a 32 bit application, which should work on any Windows version, starting with Windows XP and up. Installation of miniWOL is straight forward. MiniWOL has been reviewed by SoftPedia as safe. Since this will be different for most devices, either consult the manual of your device, read an online guide like this one at How-to-Geek, or consult Google.

This is unfortunate, since broadcasts aimed at a specific device (unicast) appears more secure than subnet-directed broadcast. This technique does seem to be required for some devices to work with WOL. Note : As of version 1.2, miniWOL supports subnet directed broadcasting. Naturally, you can guess that this is not 100% fool proof, but it’s better than nothing, and in your local network (at home or in the office) this might be safe enough.

To prevent that just anything can wake up such a network device, a very specifically formatted “magic packet” has to be send over the network. Normally just one single packet should do the trick, but most Wake On Lan applications actually send more than one packet – just to make sure. The Magic Packet ( UDP) is typically send to port 9, some systems default to port 7, and some systems allow you to define your own port number.
