Hi, I have never had to deal with a Smart Home. I have an idea to remotely switch on the computer using a momentary switch (shorting the pins on the motherboard for about a second).

This one is not suitable. Look for a voltage-free Sonoff.

>>21224786 thank you for your reply. I have changed concepts and am planning a solution with ESP board and optocoupler.
