  1. To anyone thinking of buying #JetKVM, DON'T. Early on, this thing didn't even support static IP, only recently added support for manual config. To this day, it still doesn't support local-only use. It requires an active public internet connection, otherwise, you can't even open the settings, they will be grayed out and unclickable, isn't the very reason I need to modify the settings because I have to debug and tweak the network?! In short, JetKVM's product designer is a complete fucking idiot.

  2. Oh, here is my recovery point! I completely forgot that #JetKVM has #WakeOnLan capabilities. I'll leave it powered on and connect to my #HomeLab VLAN. That way, I'll have a device to power on all my other servers in case of stranger things.

    Context: I'm preparing for a week-long vacation far from my #HomeLab.

  3. Today I installed my second #JetKVM in my desktop pc. Not for remote management. For some reason my pc won’t freaking shutdown correctly anymore :catto: And every time I had to crawl under the desk to kill it. Now I can do this from the comfort of my chair. What a time to be alive :blobcat_bonk_googly:

  4. #JetKVM with #Tailscale support is a fantastic device. Running BIOS Updates while I'm on the move is magical.

  5. Anyone get their burning out i.e getting totally hot and then not working and smelling roasted?

  6. Why can I not connect to my via its cloud service over but over no problem at all .. any ideas most welcome.

  7. Been trialling a handful of JetKVM devices for enabling console access on lesser servers but hit a snag. No documented / cyber friendly way of segmenting these devices where they belong into a mgmt VLAN :(

    Otherwise a rather slick implementation.

  8. Aktuell gibt es den #JetKVM bei Aliexpress für (edit: rund) 90 Euro.

    Bei den offiziellen Resellern 90$

  9. Urgh, my #HomeAssistant server decided to break on the latest update for the first time and seemingly isn't recovering from a reboot.

    I guess this might be the good excuse to try out my #JetKVM devices I had backed ages ago as I can't SSH into it and really cba with trying to connect it to my desk keyboard and mouse.

  10. 🚀🎉 Announcing JetKVM: the revolutionary way to control your computer from the comfort of your couch... or not at all! With features so advanced, you’ll need a PhD just to plug it in. Remember, nothing says cutting-edge like a Kickstarter reward track and enough extensions to confuse even the most determined tech savant. 🤯💻

  11. screen, after into , is not visible using . This is very remarkable: the one point where a remote user really needs access i.e. login , is precisely the one time + decides NOT to put out an signal to the . This is sod's law in spades gone orbital. Why is nearly everything an edge case ? Is using a kvm really so unusual that gnome does not make it work by default? Is this deliberate for security reasons ??

  12. Is there a way of setting a process of a laptop running to make display settings at boot of a fresh installation such that the output is set to the output so that a device shows the laptop main display at boot and not the useless empty extended part of the display ?

  13. Posted the final version printables.com/model/1385674-j

    I'll add photos later today, after I get my Amazon order and I'm able to finish the wiring.

  14. I tried running #spinrite via #jetkvm, and then tried to run it via a physical thumb drive. Neither seems to work. I guess the next step is to pull the drives and scan them on a second, older PC? 🤷‍♂️

  15. Finally getting around to connecting the #jetkvm units I ordered ages ago! They’re slick little things and I’m impressed with the lack of fuss.

    Got this one connected to my #NAS box below it.. will probably connect the others to a couple of my mini PCs and eventually a Mac Mini M4 for inferencing. Bonus is that these trigger the video out which can be tricky for some boxes if there’s no display connected.

  16. How would you enable sharing from a physical remote IP KVM (like ) to the local device?
    Specifically: how can clipboard content (like copied text) from the remote machine be transferred back to your local system while using the KVM?

  17. And that last ssh hack ... that is what is really wonderful with this #JetKVM device. it is hackable!

  18. I've finally had time to play some more with the @jetkvm

    Gee, that is a cool tool! And it works very well, even over a VPN connection. For simplicity in my setup, I just allowed my VPN client to have access to all ports on the JetKVM device.

    @librewolf has issues with the WebRTC streams. But works fine with Ungoogled Chromium.

    The virtual media functionality is definitely going to be a very nice rescue tool, if the host doesn't boot up - getting into some rescue image will definitely be handy.

    And for this kind of remote "backdoor" when a host doesn't respond - this is definitely performant enough.

    This device is definitely worth the price!

  19. 2/2 ... continued
    and the port_number is that listed from the output of
    netstat -tuln | grep LISTEN
    tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:<port_number> 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
    run and the # command prompt of the kvm itself.
    access the kvm on the remote tailscale machine as follows:

    http://localhost:8080

    seems to have worked but flaky... testing continues

  20. Anyone got working on so you can use the machine to which the is attached from outside your local area home network? i.e. when on the road. I am nearly there but get connection failure every time.
