I've been tempted to build similar things with a DIR-615 and some relay switches for 240v sockets (commercial products cost £30+ per socket), but that's slightly more dangerous when you get it wrong than a 12v supply to a Superhub.

As fun as that sounds, my electrical engineering is a bit rubbish. Or rather, non-existant.
On the bright side, finally home and rebooted - back to normal, it seems!
I've even got my 2 "other" upstreams showing again. I yearn for the day when they become active so we can maybe get back to 10:1 (or better).
