@mechrocktech

I was wondering, if an old computer does not have this feature built in, ( my 6 yr old dell inspiron b130) is there a way to buy something that allows it to remotely boot, like some USB attachment? thanks

Hey guys, you can do this without this logmein crap, it's called WOL, which is a protocol. Just port forward your PC using UDP port 9, and get a client for it!

I was just wondering... While getting the account and installing, I glanced and noticed the words "trial" and "buy" here and there (didn't properly look), while its free to make the account and use it (which is awesome), is it free for a temporary period? Or do you have any annoying limitations because it's free? I want to use this while I'm at uni, but I'm a bit worried about becoming too dependant on this I.e. need to use this really badly one day then I find a message saying trial over or so

[mechrocktech]

@Dmon1Unl It is free to use with limitations, most the majority shouldn't care about. Like no sound or file sharing. it is free to try pro for 14 days for something and you can decide if you want to pay for it afterwards. It doesn't not ask for any payment info.

Is there any limitations to this free version? Even though I can create and use it for free (which is awesome), I saw the words "tria

[lecatastrophe]

Hi, you do this at your home network. Is it possible to do the same thing from a computer on a completely different location, over the internet?

Thanks ;)

[mechrocktech]

@lecatastrophe I only use this "remotely" even though it will work over LAN as well.

[lecatastrophe]

@mechrocktech Aha.. I have red a little now at logmeins supportsites, and you need to have at least two computers with logmein installed at the same network. So it seems you can´t wake a single computer.. that´s sad because that was my problem :( But thanks a lot for fast answer ;)

[alexdunnell]

What model is your old dell pc ?

[mechrocktech]

@alexdunnell E510 if I remember right. I've replaced it now.

[Hugajohan]

[mechrocktech]

@Hugajohan No, not that I know of.

[VistaApple]

We didn't see how did you turn on the computer via Logmei!!!!

what is this all about???????????

[mechrocktech]

@VistaApple I'm not sure what you are talking about? Did you watch the video? All you have to do is install Logmein and watch the rest of the video to see how to configure it.

[mizgog]

dude please i need help. how do i add a computer? when i press add computer it just says download something? but i already downloaded it?

[mechrocktech]

@mizgog You have to download the software on the computer you want to add.

[xXorihemiXx]

@mechrocktech so the software that i downloaded, do i send it to my friend to download to ? if i wanted to add her computer ? if so, what would i do after that ?

[mechrocktech]

@xXorihemiXx You have to log onto your account on your friend's computer. Then download and install the software. How else would the computer be registered under your account?

[insane23rd]

you did this using LAN? anything to turn on through Internet?

[mechrocktech]

@insane23rd This is though the internet.

[Thatguidude]

If u did not try to show off so much u could have made this vud in 30 sec

[mechrocktech]

@Thatguidude I had to explain how to do it yourself. There are others who would have no clue how to do this.

[1810mex]
