I am going to Pakistan soon for a holiday and we do have PTCL broadband there. I am looking for power backup for PTCL router when there is a power cut. We do have a power generator but the router will get disconnected and then reconnect from the generator - I can't allow that to happen while I am on online call meetings.

I found this on Amazon which I could buy https://www.amazon.co.uk/Uninterruptable-Transfer-Function-Indicator-Wrieless-BLACK/dp/B081TPD8WB/ or https://www.amazon.co.uk/Eaton-3S-Mini-black-white/dp/B092TG9M7C

Is a better alternative which I can buy in Pakistan? can you please advice...

The link I have provided mini USP can backup 80 minutes backup time.
Sir, aap ne jis UPS ka link share kiya hai, main bhi esi UPS ki baat kr raha hoon.
PTCL ke routers 1 se 1.6 amps rating ke hote hain, and aap ne jo UPS pst kiya hai es UPS ki battery 🔋 ki capacity 8800 mAh hai.
Agar aap ka PTCL router 1.6 ampere bhi consume kre to es hisaab se Mini UPS ki battery ka back up time 5.5 hours banta hai.

why you need that PTCL broadband first place ? buy a sim and use mobile as hotspot sir .

Is 4g dongle reliable for work from 12PM to 9PM for Video Call (eg: zoom) and web development?
Check your area for coverage. Best way is to get someone with a dongle to check internet speeds at your required time. Can be checked with a 4g phone with a Zong sim too.

You are getting too concerned with options; 40 UKP is a throwaway price so why all this concern? Just buy the thing and keep your mobile 4G as a backup too.

I never said the price is an issue.

I just want a reliable connection for work for 1 month.

I might get two mobile 4G devices with different company.

You're on holiday but you'll be working? Are you a contractor? :)

Been working from home almost 2 years since covid started. So might as well go to Pakistan to spend time and work as well :D

MashaAllah, great plan! Do work know or is it on the down low?

Work know. As long not causing issues, a good internet connection is required.

That is a sweet gig bro. Good for you. I'd love to do that but the internet in the pind is horrid and i'm not rich enough to afford a villa in Islamabad... yet.
