How'd you send the command remotely? Radio? Via internet would seem... ironic
OP's example use case in the post was with the internet still being up. Building off of that yes, I'd log into the power switch remotely via the internet where I can then power cycle anything plugged into it - for me it was just to restart unresponsive desktops or whatever was plugged into it.
But you wouldn't need internet to power cycle the internet router itself by using scheduled tasks. e.g. the power switch can check that the internet router is responding to pings every x seconds/minutes and power cycle it if stops responding. (it has other checks/conditions it can use besides simple pings)
That said my own equipment rarely/never needs a reboot so in the case my network loses internet access it usually means the internet is actually down, nothing I can do about that aside from maintaining backup internet if I needed.
Huh, but I got the idea that OP's internet wasn't still up. His router acting up would indicate to me that he'd be offline, no? And therefore any device on his LAN
You would be correct, in my case the box itself locks up. meaning my internet from the isp is still working, but no internet inside the house. so a reboot of the device is required.
