Most motherboards since the 90's have supported Wake On Lan. You configure in your bios to 'listen' when the machine is powered off for a special network packet. When the computer sees that network packet it powers on the computer.
Someone has written an alexa skill for it.

Hi Oscar, for some reason when I enable this skill it doesn't appear in my skill list. Is it perhaps regionalized to North America? I live in New Zealand and all my enabled skills appear on the australian alexa https://alexa.amazon.com.au

The WoL skill also doesn't appear when I search for it on https://alexa.amazon.com.au/spa/index.htm
​
Any ideas? Thanks

but https://www.amazon.com.au/Oscar-Penelo-Wake-Lan-WoL/dp/B07PGKK416
does not exist.
​
Perhaps this is the reason that the Skill cannot be enabled?
