My DSL does not fail even when the power goes out. During the hugh blackout a couple of years back, I was on the edge and power went off for 5 minutes a few times. If my DSL fails when it recovers, I get a new IP address. I run a client script I wrote and every 60 seconds it checks to verify my IP is not changed. It also logs every change and the time. During the blackout I never lost my internet connection and my local web server never went off line.

If you UPS your computer and network gear, your phone very likely stays up even during an extended power outage.
