Power button issues (google it) are a major flaw.

This is why it's important to have other security monitoring resources on your network if you intend to open ports or expose your services to the Internet. Also a good time to change all your passwords if you have not already.
all I want is to be able to continue my normal usage of this product.
Don't count on them to do the right thing. They are a money grubbing company who doesn't care about your problems. Demonstrated over and over.
Such a greedy company.
Is there a reason you cannot accomplish this with a selfhosted VPN?
Exposing anything has risk. Risk of loss of data, your systems being used for other attacks, and loss of time/money to fix. It is entirety possible to do this as safe as practical of course- keeping your stuff up to date and having some kind of visibility into intrusion detection for immediate response are ways to minimize issues.
Interesting. I've been in IT for over 30 years and have always used UPS systems. Never had data loss as a result of power issues. Also, it cleans the power a bit and I get a lot of life from my hardware. Plus, I dont have to worry at all, it works as intended. My entire lab has redundant UPS systems backed by a large generator ... Zero downtime is nice.
I think it comes down to how reliable or fast your internet is. You can selfhost a lot of stuff with reliable internet, power, and environmental variables.
If you have any of those which are less than reliable, a VPS like Linode may make sense for uptime.
Good choice, I'm glad you found something that works for you!
Rm2 is pretty fragile. Check the power button brick issues with a search engine and consider before choosing
My UPS systems have built in monitoring.
No, that's not natively supported

$1k wouldn't get me started for the electrical runs and cabinets for the hardware.
