telco that deploys fiber to the home. If we are providing
voice services over fiber a battery backup is installed (we
maintain) that powers the customer's phone in the event of a
power outage. It does not power their router, etc. 99% of
the customers do not install a UPS for their router, etc. We
try to explain that to customers, but we still get calls that
they can't get on the Internet when their power is out.</p>

modem which isn't a router? I assume it uses IP for voice. <br>
