Do I Need To Leave My PC On All The Time To Remotely Access It?
Unlike other remote access solutions, with I’m InTouch Premium’s Remote Wake-Up feature, you CAN remotely access your PC even if it is shut down. All you need is one other computer on the same network to be on and I’m InTouch Premium will automatically wake-up your computer when you try and access it. Think of all money you will save on your electricity bill by not having to leave your computers on all the time just to remotely access them. Plus, you’ll always have access to your files and programs no matter where you are, never be denied remote access to your PC because it was accidentally shut down.
Turning on Remote Wake-Up is easy:
- Login to your I’m InTouch Premium administrator account at https://locator.01com.com.
- From your List of Computers page, place checkmarks next to the computers whose Remote Wake-Up properties you wish to change and click the User settings/Activate link.
- On the User Settings page, ensure that each computer has check marks in the boxes for Remote Wake-Up Enabled. We also recommend doing the same for Remote Wake-Up Proxy so that any computer can act as the proxy to wake up the other computers. Remember, at least one computer must have Wake-Up Proxy enabled and be turned on in order for other computers to be remotely powered on.
Your computer is now ready to remotely powered on as needed. See here for more information about using I’m InTouch Premium’s Remote Wake-Up feature.
