What is the point of having a UPS, if your power is down, so is your internet access.
not true.
people with DSL/EVDO (plus maybe satellite?) still have internet when the power goes out.
my mining hardware itself is just on surge protectors, but the controlling computer has a UPS. I just prefer clean shutdowns for my rigs rather than just yanking the power out from under them.
I use APC and cyberpower to keep my various boxes up.
