Blackout oddity

The power went out about 40 minutes ago, which really sucks cause I was almost done one of my tasks to submit. I swore a little, and went to go take a shower, figuring it'd be back up by the time I needed to dry my hair. No luck.

Regardless, no power = no router/modem = no internet, even though my laptop battery is raaring to go. But just for fun, I clicked around and found that one of my neighbours has an unsecured network functioning. As more than the entire block has no power, how is this possible?
