I have my node on a ubs, but also have a few battery packs for modem/router as needed. They’ll give me up to 8 hours on a modem alone. I’ve had power out but internet on with this approach, but obviously there could be an internet outage if the situation has damage from local switch station, but I haven’t had that yet.

That’s probably the more common scenario. I kept mine on battery backup but never had a good easy backup solution for an internet outage, especially if the outage occurred while I wasn’t home.

I guess it depends on coverage and density. If cables are down, it limits the options to independent broadband or satellite, both coming with some nominal fee. Good question , and curious if there is a switch option to manage the transition 🤔
