Contingency Plans in case of loss of power.
Just wondering what you do to protect yourselves in the case of a power cut/loss of internet connection etc whilst you're exposed in the market, these days I guess you could just trade manually on your phone with a 4g connection but maybe that's a bit too slow for some strategies. Anybody have second lines etc as a back up?
Their is a few suggestions in this blog post

For a power cut I've got a UPS for my PC & router. I only get about 3 mins on my full setup but that's plenty. The phone line stays active and the broadband box in the street will run for about an hour (so BT tell me).
For internet outages, I have a wireless dongle in my pc, I switch my phone to 'hotspot' mode, change my pc connection from wired to wirless, and I can be up again in about 20secs.
