make it so my PC can be powered off, and from my laptop (locally) just type a command in and the PC just turns on?
then i wanna connect to it on my laptop remotely so i can log on and use it?

good luck with that.

#

some BIOS support Wake-on-LAN, but you'd need the PC with ethernet wire, and then some complex stuff to communicate to it while it's off to boot it.

okay lets say im on my laptop on the same network (ethernet on pc if that matters) how would i always make the PC accessible in the LAN so i can connect to it

your best option is to have a setup like mine without needing to use wake on lan and just keep your PC on 24/7

#

I have my workstation rig at home always running with RustDesk on it

#

and using RustDesk I can connect from any device to it (Sunshine + Moonlight if you want to do gaming)

#

Linux is pretty reliable at running for long periods of time (unless they cut off your power)

#

there is also an option for some hardware setups to "wake on power" or something similar available in BIOS/UEFI
