As long as the MikTeX server is awake and answering, you can rest easy.

It just so happens that whenever I need MikTeX to work for a workshop,
the server gets turned off/taken down.

In the design of MikTeX, the package installer cannot retrieve package
from other CTAN servers without first checking with that one MikTeX
server.  If anybody thinks that I'm not correct, please speak up.  The
links I provided on the original post explain that is the case.
