I guess whatchdog is the answer for all your question

I use teamviewer for remote access, is there anyway to unfreeze by forcing a powerdown on the computer?? My computer was just showing as offline but it still powered on but the computer was frozen/inaccessible.. Is there any creative ideas on how to power off a computer when frozen? My mobo is set to automatically power on after a power-loss.

I use the TP Link HS 110, it just works.

I use these:

Then I bypass the internal 15Amp fuse and rely on the 20A GFCI house breaker.  I run 2 rigs with 1300 watt PSUs and supplemental fans as needed on the other outlets.

This is working for me:

I was not using them with more than 1KW PSU and I had problems only with adapters to EU socket they supply. Buy local adapters.

I got the opensshd server/client setup last night and woke up this morning reading my event viewer and it was being blown up by a Chinese IP address for exceeding unauthorized attempts lol

Im headed to Best Buy now to purchase a wifi outlet, they are expensive there but I guess it's the same as if I did next day air

If you want to open the ssh port on your router, for security you should change the default port, disable password authentication in the sshd_config file and create an AllowUsers with only public key authentication.

How are you guys receiving offline notifications? I can't find any good free services that send instant notifications when the rig goes offline.. SMS would be the best
