Has anyone tried using a UPS battery backup with a linux receiver ?

Could it help stablilise my internet connection ?

I have dodgy electrics / internet and was wondering if this could help with these brief interuptions ?

I have ups here, surporting my router, and my VU, and tv works without any issue, other than an annoying alarm if the power fails
it runs for up to 30 minutes+

I think finntanl (or name that looks similar) got a ups to help with his dodgy electrics. Hopefully he can add some feedback when he's online, but there is the topic he created somewhere on the forum...
