Hi All,

I received a new iMac for Christmas (27" non retina) and I have been trying to figure out the best remote connectivity software to use?

Attached you'll find a screenshot of my current settings under Energy Saver, and it seems with these settings, that when my mac goes to sleep, most remote software can not wake it. I have tried to Chrome RDP and Teamviewer.

Is there something out there that would send a wake on lan request when I try to connect? Someone mentioned Logmein, but they no longer offer free accounts, and I assume I can use gotomypc, but am not sure.

If anyone has any info, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks
