  Mom. Thanks for doing this for me.

  So yeah, you’re going to open the closet. No, the closet in the hallway. Yeah, that one.

  So see the black box on the bottom… the one with wires like spaghetti, that’s it.

  All the way on the right side there’s 2 rectangles. I said rectangles…. like squares, yes…

  The one all the way to right is a button. You push it in… no, it’s ok, I appreciate you doing this… yes, this would be funny if I were a doctor… no, it won’t break anything. So you just press it…

  No no. It’s supposed to make that sound. That means it’s starting up. Yes, it can be loud… but that’s exactly what I needed. Lights? Yep, those are good.

  Thanks Mom. That should do it… wait… did I just hear you hit the light switch in the closet?

  Can you tell me if there’s lights on the black box… No? And it’s quiet. Yeah… I figured.

  Ok Mom, so what I need you to do is turn on the light switch you just hit. Right, that one. Good.

  Now… remember that button, yep, the square, I need you to press it again…

    Smart plug is lan only as otherwise it’s a security risk. And it’s actually connected to the ups because of best-practices. WoL… yeahhhhhh uhhhhhhhhhhhh forgot to set that up since the router has been setup and self-updaying for ages now, it’s not really something I think about…

      Good thing about the setup and self updating router is you should have a VPN/(head/tail)scale connection enabled to it so you can still use the smart plug (plugged into the UPS) or send the WoL packet. Or PiKVM. Or if your breaker box is outside ask your neighbor to flip some switches until it comes back to life and come back to an online server and a fridge full of spoiled food.

  My server is set to power on after losing and retaining power, but it’s not super reliable if the power only flickers (or flickers a lot in a short period of time), so I have a smart plug. If my server’s offline, I just toggle it and it’s back after a few minutes.
