Go install DirectX and any other missing drivers. See Step by Step instructions for specifics.
Golden rule "Server + Client" column unless you know. To be specific "Server + Client" is for -mod=, "Server Only " for the servermod= parameter.
Connect to server and type #login adminpassword in chat.
For known big ones you should click "update" on them indiviually. It times out roughly every 1GB of data so just keep clicking that update button.
It's stored in C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\FoxliCorp.
You still need to type #login in chat.
Either set "Verify Signatures" to disabled (can be found in the Server tab under "SERVER ADVANCED") or click Copy Mod Keys ion the Profile tab. Some mods provide correct incorrect and/or outdated bikey files or none at all. In that Case you can fix it with Bisign2Bikey yourself: https://github.com/wrdg/Bisign2Bikey
Keep in mind to copy the newly created bikey file to the servers keys folder or create a keys folder inside the mod. Then FASTERs Copy Mod Keys function works as well.
By design and can't be changed. Yes, really. This doesn't affect how the server is named as this is set in the server config.
Why tho? - Because Arma can have a severe hissy-fit if it encounteres 2 profiles with the exact same name. To avoid this, a really long and random string is being used every time a faster-serverProfile is created to identify it.
Once you click launch they will be copied to your clipboard. If you have HCs enabled it'll be their launch parameters so turn them off momentarily.
Either untick the AutoInit checkbox in the "Missions" tab or restart the mission by tpying #reassign in chat.
Rightclick on the profile name which is in the bottom center (not the list on the left). The latest .rpt file in there is your server log. -> more infos can be found here
You will have to force download the mods again by clicking on each mods "Update" button individually.
There's also this way but you might break your FASTER config...
When you see two instances and you are on the same network as your server then you see the LAN connection and the Internet connection to your server.
More can be visible depending if you have headless client/s active as well.
