I have a media server located in a very inconvenient part of my house. Occasionally I will have to reset my router or it will reset itself. The issue is the PC loses connectivity for some reason, and I am forced to walk outside, around the house, into the basement, over a bunch of toys and weights and boxes, to push a button to reboot it.

I would love to have it check itself every 5-10 minutes and auto reboot if it is unable to ping a given address/IP.

Any ideas how to accomplish this?
