Strve. Our problem is we live in an area that doesn't get a cell signal, so a land line is important. We depend on wifi to use our cell phones from home, & if the power goes out, we're without a signal. I can fire up the generator and have power, but I like to just use that intermittently to power up the freezer, fridge, etc. in case fuel might become a problem
