In Chennai, each area has powercuts at different timings.. For example in my house the powercut now is between 2 & 4 P.M everyday. Similarly the situation I was faced was that in my house there will be powercut during which I cant browse , plus for the time there is powercut where their servers are located (which happened to be starting 9 AM+) .. They used to tell me stories about battery backup will be replaced in 2-3 days (I heard this story for 3+ months)... On top of which there were 2-3 full day outages (There is monthly 1 day full day powercut as well) .. this brought me to the brink & then for was an extended continuous outage of more than 3-4 days , and that was that.
