Hi, hoping someone can help. I am running 2 Jynxbox units, with separate subs. When I have a power outage, about half the time my sub gets flagged and shut down. This has happened to me many times with different sub providers over the years. I have had it happen on different boxes also (Limesats).
Im not even sure where to start. I seem to have a simple setup. Jynxbox to ethernet switch to router to internet.
Any idea what might be happening or how to fix this?

Get a UPS (or two) and run everything through it,(router, modem, internet switch and receiver) when the power goes out your still on, the bigger the UPS (VA) the longer the run time.

Example: if your total system takes 45 watts (add the units draw) then a UPS rated to 1500 VA will keep it up for about an hour.
