wake 20050624 offers users a brilliant Perl program which can send Wake-on-LAN packets to wake up remote systems. It works on any system that has Perl installed and supports UDP; any Unix-like system and even Microsoft Windows should work
How does it work?
You call wake with the MAC address of the machine you want to wake up (e.g. wake 00:40:63:DE:56:3E). This MAC address is used to construct a special packet containing the sequence 0xffffffffffff, followed by 16 repetitions of the MAC address. The machine listens to the network, and if it detects this sequence, it is powered up. Of course, this requires that the machine supports Wake-on-LAN (usually, you also have to enable it in the BIOS).
Wake Assist 1.0
Wake Assist solves a wake-from-sleep problem on some Macs more>>
Wake Assist automatically clicks the mouse a few seconds after waking from sleep. The mouse click is enough to nudge a stuck Mac to wake up fully.
The mouse click will only happen if the Mac is not being used we made sure Wake Assist stays out of your way.
Wake Assist is a small Mac OS X daemon; it sits quietly in the background until your Mac wakes from sleep.
1. A few seconds after your Mac wakes up Wake Assist checks for user activity.
2. If no activity has taken place since waking up, Wake Assist performs a couple of mouse clicks.
3. Finally Wake Assist returns to waiting silently for the next wake from sleep.

Wake550 for OSX 1.0
Wake550 allows you to wake a sleeping computer from over a LAN. Simply type the MAC Address into the dialog box labeled Hardware Address more>> Wake550 allows you to wake a sleeping computer from over a LAN. Simply type the MAC Address into the dialog box labeled "Hardware Address". To find the MAC Address, use the "Network Utility" program found in the Utilities folder on the target machine, assuming it is running Mac OS X. The different MAC Addresses are listed under the info tab. Theoretically the program should wake Windows machines as well, assuming the Windows machine has a Wake-On-LAN compatible ethernet card. It will not wake a computer that is only connected to the network through Airport, as the Airport antenna of the target machine will power down while asleep.
MacOS X 10.0 or later.
