Hi @ajithm27
Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for posting your query! We're here to help you get back up and running.
Your OMEN 15-en1000 laptop does support Wake on LAN (WOL), but Wake on Wireless LAN (WoWLAN) is often limited on laptops due to power-saving restrictions. Here are some steps to try:
1. Enable Wake on LAN (WOL)
Check BIOS Settings:
- Restart your laptop and enter BIOS (F10 key during boot).
- Navigate to Advanced > Power Management.
- Enable Wake on LAN.
Configure Network Adapter in Windows:
- Open Device Manager (Win + X > Device Manager).
- Expand Network Adapters and right-click your Ethernet adapter.
- Go to Properties > Power Management.
- Enable Allow this device to wake the computer.
- Under Advanced, enable Wake on Magic Packet.
Test Wake on LAN:
- Use a WOL app on another device to send a wake-up packet.
- If successful, your laptop should wake from hibernate.
2. Wake on Wireless LAN (WoWLAN)
- Some HP OMEN models do not support WoWLAN when the lid is closed.
- You can check by:
- Opening Device Manager and selecting your Wi-Fi adapter.
- Under Power Management, enable Allow this device to wake the computer.
- If Wake on Magic Packet is missing, WoWLAN is likely unsupported.
Alternative Solutions
- Use an External Keyboard/Mouse: Some gaming peripherals support wake-up functions.
- Use Smart Plug Automation: If WOL isn’t working, a smart plug can power-cycle the laptop remotely.
