A feature I have come to love is wake on lan which allows you to start a computer remotely across the network. One limitation to it, however, is that you can only send the ‘magic packet’ across your local network.
Well, if you want to be able to wake your computer from anywhere then check out this tool from DSL Reports. Using the Wake On Lan tool on their web page, you can send a wake up packet to your computer from anywhere. This is completely awesome as you can have your computer off or in standby and have it wake up on demand.
