But - hear me out - if all of your servers did have wifi - and it was usually disabled - but you could enable it, move the server, then disable it - that might be something?
I know having a redundant server is better - but there's something to it.
Also, this reminds me of a post I read a while ago about them moving a server from one building to another without unplugging it or something.

- passivegains 2y agothank you for digging up the link, it was everything I hoped it would be. that one's going in my bookmarks. obviously a second server and a reverse proxy or something would be less jank, but your idea definitely has merit. it's kind of like using two points of contact while climbing something.
- thisislife2 2y agoWhy just Wifi? With ARM chips you can also have LTE in your servers! (Better check with the NSA first - maybe all the existing Intel and AMD SoCs already have some form of wireless comm built-into it?).
