Do you turn your servers off when you leave home? What is your line of thinking on this?

I should have clarified I don’t mean for the day, I mean for a week plus.

You didn’t mention it directly, but if you want to access any of your hosted services remotely, you will almost certainly want some kind of VPN solution. I host a few things over HTTPS, but there’s no way I’m exposing anything critical directly to the internet.

Yeah I do do that as well :)

I’m just worried that something goes wrong hardware wise or bios wise and I can’t turn it off or it causes a house issue.

Get a KVM that gives you remote access if you’re really worried but your server really should stay up without issue unless you have some faulty hardware or setup
