@julieannjulien96 could be if the power outage caused a wider outage with your internet provider, they use power too

@julieannjulien96 yes but if your provider went down outside the house then your backup power won’t matter if there’s no internet signal coming in from the provider

@julieannjulien96 that’s standard, it should have kicked in, surprised if it didn’t. Mine always does. It’s my alert to my internet glitching

It's only a backup battery, should be left plugged in at all times, and if you have a power cut it will continue to work for 24 hours

This doesn’t necessarily say that the battery died. Maybe it couldn’t get a good cellular connection?
