Hi Jared,

Beware that the Verizon ONTs shut down all services *except* POTs when
they lose AC power. Some kind of conservation mode to maximize the
time 911 is available I guess. If you want Internet service (for VOIP)
to continue during a power outage, you'll have to stack another UPS in
front of it.
