Also switched to 5g internet service as the cable moden went down. I figured thar would guarantee he would never lose line power again but sure enough a month ago it went down for a few more days and everything worked as planned.

Sounds like a good plan.
I wouldn't switch to slower and more expensive 5G internet because a. I lost cell coverage when the ice storm took out power all around, and b. if I have cell coverage, I can set my phone as a hotspot.
True internet resiliency is StarLink. Plus, it's portable.
