1. Can I control each outlet separately?
   Yes. Each outlet is individually controllable, so you can reboot one device without shutting off the other.
   
2. Do I need OvrC to use it?
   No. It works as a normal surge protector out of the box. OvrC is for remote control, scheduling, and monitoring after setup.
   
3. Should I connect it by WiFi or Ethernet?
   Either works. WiFi is easiest. Ethernet is best when you want maximum stability, especially for racks, offices, and critical gear.
