Can I start my server computer on remote?

I've installed a server computer for several things, but I do not want to buy another screen, keyboard and mouse to work with it. Instead I choose a program called RemoveVPN, to control my Server (like teamViewer) on my own laptop or iPhone.

This works perfectly, but is there a way that I can start that computer( like pushing the "on" button)? Because the computer will be stored down in the basement and it could be nice to not always run downstairs to get to the computer.

Absolutely. Many people who have servers colocated in a remote data center purchase power strips with network capability. You can switch an individual outlet on or off via the network. Remember that this only works if you have "power on when power resumes" in the bios power management setting.

not sure if it can power your server or damage your power supply so do a backup first before testing.

  • What language should I start with to start developing iOS apps? If I want to develop iPhone apps, should I learn Python first or just go straight to objective C or learn something else? I have 0 programming skills and have only done some web development. I have a Mac and Xcode.
  • Server unavailable - can't access server - iPhone? Just wondering if anyone is having server issues? I've been unable to log on on my iPhone in about a week now. Keep getting 'server unavailable - please try again later' or 'can't access server'! I can access it if I go through safari app tho. Any advise would be great. Cheers
  • Safari can't open the page because the server can't be found on iPhone 4s? At first, the internet worked, but then just stopped. I can go on google a and search something, but when I try to go on some site, I have that error. I have Wi-Fi and I do not have a SIM on my iPhone, so I can't go on Settins/Cellular. Are there any solutions?
  • My computer will only start, if i'm connecting my Iphone to it (through USB)? My computer (asus X54H) restarted by itself the other day. If i start it, it shows the ASUS logo, and then nothing happens. But then i find out, that it starts normally if i connect my Iphone to it. You know, with an USB-Cable. My problem is: What can i do, so my computer just starts normal. Please help me. Ps. My knowledge about computer is not very huge.
