    I used to experience problems where an Internet outage can affect my work. Right now I have a backup connection in the form of an HSDPA modem that supports my cable Internet line.

    Yeh! This is a too common issue with me, but simply because my house has a issue with the phone lines. So when it happens I turn on my 3g on my phone and use that internet till it comes back.

    Other then that its a few nice words to my self about the phone company and then just waiting is the game.
