Remote wake up from energy save mode

With most of my systems I worked with Microsoft Remote Desktop App to access it remotely when needed.

With the surface studio, this works only, when it is on, however, as mentioned by others, the fans are running continously in that mode. And, the surface consumes about 15W, when running idle.

Therefore, I let it go to energy save mode after a certain time. But in energy save mode, I cannot wake it up remotely as my other computer. I tried the different settings for the ethernet interface, but I can't find a setting, that is allowing to wake up the system. when I try to connect remotely with RDP.

Anyone here who was successfull?

quite difficult, but I have a workaround.

When I leave, I put the Surface Studio in Energy Save Mode and place the mouse on my old handy, a Note5. Whenever I send a mail to my special wakeup address, the handy vibrates and wakes the PC up ...

If someone has a better solution, just let me know.
