I have not tried things suggested, but they should work. It would be useful to know the answers for following question: What is the input and output ratings (voltage, current) of power adapter of the wifi routers?

Battery dimensions (http://www.whitedogbatteries.com/batspecs.htm) For 3 A/hr 11.4 cm x 7.1 cm x 8.6 cm You may also think of using the battery from your UPS directly (without converting it to AC). It could be more efficient.
