Re: Cable Modems

If you have a UPS on the modem itself, it should continue to work. The cable companies mostly provide power to the cable system from a central point and have provision for extended outages where they pick up commercial power along the network.

During a recent (fairly lengthy) power outage I got to wondering if a UPS on my cable modem and router would have allowed me to go on working. I know the phone system runs even when I have no power to the house but don't know enough about how cable operates to know how well that survives power cuts.

Anyone know?
