This is similar to, but not the same as, Is wireless wake on lan possible?. I know it is supposed to be possible. The question is, how do I do whatever the AirPort Basestation will do?

All I can find so far is that supposedly I need to send something with Wireless Multimedia Extensions (WMM):

Basically, I want to be able to wake up my Mac Mini remotely, probably using my Linux laptop. Does anyone know of a tool to do this? Basic Wake on LAN tools do not seem to be the right thing. I don't need the Sleep Proxy Service bit, because I already know the MAC address of the system I want to wake up.

I've done this before with a python script that I found on the intarwebs. With this script, you'd simply put your MAC in at the bottom and you should be good to go.
