Hello everyone. Would welcome help please.
I have PC’s that do not always work with WOL. Instead I can set the BIOS to turn on if power is cut and then restored. I would like to use remote tp-link plug sockets which turn on and off.
The only problem is ensuring not to turn off the pc’s if they’re still online.
I wonder if it’s possible to check if a ping response is received or not. If one is not received then the plug socket is turned off and then back on. This would kick start the pcs.
Thanks all
Boyd
