All of your computer and networking equipment should be powered through a Battery Backup/Uninterruptable Power Supply(UPS). The common power strip is not very good protection. The only brand of UPS that I currently use is APC (American Power Conversion). These have great surge protection and also allow your systems to run through brownouts and outages. The inexpensive ($35-$90) models protect against surges but the models that start at $100 usually have protection from brown outs also. If you have a UPS and it is over 2 yrs old, it most likely needs a new battery. You can order a new battery from APC or get one locally from BatteriesPlus. www.apc.com
