  Open and inexpensive DIY IP-KVM based on Raspberry Pi

  

Another option is to control a power-hungry NAS with a PiKVM device.

Got the idea from this youtuber[1], he has some nice ideas on setting up a home server.

Author here, apologies for the dark mode issue and thanks for flagging it -- looks to be an open bug in theme-ui (https://github.com/system-ui/theme-ui/issues/1602).

I've just pushed a workaround that appears to have fixed it.

• wake-on-arp

  2 72 2.7 C

  An commandline daemon that wakes up a device on the local network when accessed

I've already made this into a all-in-one program: https://github.com/nikp123/wake-on-arp/

but i do agree with the others in this thread, it's quite a hassle to keep this setup working as intended.

I'd advise against wherever possible, consider investing into an efficient PC:

My current home server thing runs at only 22W while idle and costed me (including storage) about 150eur.
