      @D0llyy, yes. You'll need to enable wake-on-lan in your PC's BIOS, and have TRIGGERcmd run a wakeonlan (or equivilent) command on a separate computer on the same network.

      This article describes it, but you can also search this forum or google for wake on lan.

      This PC magazine article about it is also pretty good:

          @D0llyy, yes there are many tools for many OS's that can send the magic packet to wake up another computer.

          Windows: https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/wake_on_lan.html
          Mac: https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/wakeonlan
          Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install wakeonlan
