I'm wondering if its possible to turn on a PC wirelessly, similar to a PS3 via bluetooth controller (w/o a cord)? I dont mean from sleep I mean from a dead start. Can a board with integrated BT do this using BT devices such as PS3 controller or keyboard? That, or something similar like Wake on WLAN? Would the board require integrated WLAN for that to work, and do any of Intel's mATX boards have WoWLAN?
I'd also like to use my smartphone to access and control my PC from anywhere via RDC app (remote desktop connect). Is it possible to use my phone to turn the PC on/off, if so how? What would it need integrated in the mobo (WLAN, BT, WiFi, 3g)? What I understand is BT dongles and wireless PCIe cards cant turn the PC on since both need power from the mobo, requiring PC to be at least sleeping. But if they're integrated wouldn't they'd have constant power even w/ the PC off?
If someone has a solution I'd very much appreciate it ...
Thank you!
