To enable this feature, you need to set up the following items.

Pressing 'DEL' when you attempt to power on the unit will take you into the BIOS.
Go to 'Advanced' > 'PowerManagement Configuration' > 'Wake On Lan', enable this option.
2. Turn off 'Fast Startup' in the Windows 10.
3. Disable the 'Firewall' for the Windows 10.
4. NEO N42C-4 and the other PC that controls it should be connected to the same LAN.
