    Wait if the power is out, how do they have Internet to load new packages? Something doesn’t make sense here

      Cable internet tends to stay online even if your power is out. You’d need a battery backup for your modem/router, but it is possible to stay online. Houses can be clever like that, almost all of your utilities will partially work, even when service is interrupted.

      My router has a 5G backup connection and a battery. Light could be out and I’d still have internet. So, yeah, it’s possible :P
