When this setting is enabled for a network device, the DHCP
server of the FRITZ!Box will assign the same IP address to this
device each time the connection is established.
Starting the Computer—Wake on LAN
Wake on LAN is a function that allows a computer in the local
network to be started when it is accessed from the Internet.
For instance, you can access a computer using remote main-
tenance software, without wasting electricity by keeping the
computer switched on permanently. The computer must be in
standby operation.
The Wake on LAN function of computers can be enabled in the
editing mode for network devices. The computers must sup-
port Wake on LAN and be connected with the FRITZ!Box with a
network cable. The Wake on LAN function is also available
when the devices are connected via FRITZ!Powerline devices.
The FRITZ!Box supports Wake on LAN both for IPv4 and for
IPv6 connections.
