Hoping someone may have an idea for me here.
I have just purchased a broadlink rm2 so that I can use alexa to turn my pc on and off in my front room via voice control along with my tv and amp. Which is great it means I can use voice to get my home cinema up and running.
I run plex on my pc for This, now I'm curious if there is a way I can remotely give alexa a command so that I can turn on my pc from as an example work in London.
Which would then give my phone access to my plex server, and likewise I would be able to put the pc back to sleep via the same method.
A friend has said about using wake over lan, which I will look into, bit would prefer to be able to activate my echo skills remotely if possible as it would also mean I would be able to close curtains and turn lights on etc.
