I've been wondering why anybody would have a smart home system, by that I mean having the lights and thermostat and security system all Wi-Fi based. Additionally I have ezviz cameras on my home that I can access from my cell phone when I am up north, that is also Wi-Fi based. There was an Amazon product that will open your front door or garage door to allow the men to put deliveries inside, don't think that's a good idea either. I believe Comcast / Xfinity also offer cell phone access that competes with Verizon and the others. Who in there right mind would want a Wi-Fi based cell phone after us outage like this? I am rambling a bit here but it seems like a lot of these products can be extremely unreliable and dangerous.
