In $dayjob I work for a telco that deploys fiber to the home. If we are providing voice services over fiber a battery backup is installed (we main tain) that powers the customer's phone in the event of a power outage.
I have fiber service from my local RLEC. The modem comes with a 12V battery UPS which looks big enough to keep the phone and internet on for several days. But as you say, it's the modem, not the router. If the power went out and the UPS I have for my other equipment ran down, which would take about half an hour, I suppose I could run an ethernet cable from my laptop to the modem. R's, John
