We bought two APC Back-UPS BE425M and one with a higher rating (can't find the box/manual so can't remember except that it was higher). The router + base Orbi + one laptop are plugged into one of the new 425s and the two ofices upstairs have higher wattage. One is a new APC one and one is a relatively new CyberPower. I did the math on wattage and the ones we bought SHOULD be sufficient.

There is one obvious test: Reconnect the two installation to wall power. (i.e bypass the new UPSs)
No UPS: "No Problem". or....... it's not the UPS.
