Since people are saying this software doesn't have enough time/known contributors for trust who would people recommend for remote control of say a parents laptop for remote IT support. Preferably $0 and open source but others as well

It is hard for me to understand who benefits from these devices. Any serious server environment already uses idrac or something similar. What kind of device are people planning to remote into with them? NVRs maybe?

People without a serious server environment or in all the myriad places where you need a local terminal temporarily or setting up one is super inconvenient. Say a small 19" rack in a cellar. with this you just plug in in, memorise the IP and go somewhere where you can sit comfortably.

I think you overestimate how "serious" most companies are. Sure, they have long documents about compliance but then you look behind the facade and see a CI server running on a windows laptop with an external USB SSD plugged in.

I've been satisfied with NanoKVM lite. Cheap and does what i want.

I have the PCIe version of NanoKVM, and I am also happy with it.

The big advantage of the PCIe version is that it does not take up space on the desk and all the cables for ATX power control an inside the PC case.

Full-sized HDMI is nice, the only limitation here is 1080p resolution. 1440p or higher would allow mirroring the output on the main monitor to the NanoKVM, but this probably a weird use-case anyway.

Has been for close to a week now! Mine is already through Canadian customs after shipping from China. Purchased via Wisdpi.

I think they opened sales the same day that GL.iNet announced their new cloud KVM.

I couldn't see if it could "press" the reset button.

They made an add on board that you wire between your case buttons and the header on your motherboard so you can than then 'press' any of the buttons.

there's this add on which allows it to do front panel/power stuff

If someone is looking for an open source alternative: https://pikvm.org/

I've been looking for something like this, but with a built in LTE modem.

Also, where do you buy (IoT?) Sim cards cheaply, valid over entire continents or worldwide?

Looks like they are coming: https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-rm10c4/?utm_source=websi...

get a esim adapter (ie. euicc in sim card format), find a plan on https://esimdb.com/, load it onto the esim, and plug it into your iot device.

amelius 10/28/2025||

They don't seem to offer/list Lyca cards, which are among the cheapest, in my (limited) experience.

I picked up one from the kickstarter campaign. It's a wonderful, well-made device and open-source to boot. I plan to buy more.
