will the powerbank be able to support 12v,2A ? i would like to use it with Huawei HG8145V5, when i tried to use it , router was not turning on . Another point to note, even though the router has Pass

Most battery bank supports 12v1.5A. enough for router to run. Can you check the power adaptor rating supplied with the router ?
Not sure why 1s gap. Should not happen
 
Ya Power Bank can output 12v but only if the device communicates and asks for it through usb data pins.. Else it'll be 5v
 
Powerbank with quickcharge not fastcharge supports higher voltage.

Exactly, you can get a cable from AliExpress which has the necessary circuitry to complete the quickcharge handshake and bump the voltage to 12V.

I've that cable, and have tested but with an Mi power bank, the switching time is too much so the device will restart which is kinda irritating. I haven't tested with other power banks.
 
Good News !!

The installation guys did a good job & installed the router at original location 1 (near the computer) so no problems of buying extra ups etc.
Speeds are awesome as seen below, 5Gz is only slowing down in balcony where we sit in winters but still getting 18-20mbps, plus we can always use data connection in mobile so not much need of repeater as of now.

For future I would like to know the method of using the old airtel VDSL router to extend the range when needed.

You mean a powerbank? but then that powerbank would need to be unplugged & charged mostly after 1-2 days, isn't it?

No, actually, Mini UPS are available for 1.8-2.3k, which have the 12v output and input, you just have to plug ur adapter into the powerbank and plug from the powerbank to the ONT or router, you do not need to remove it ever because it switches on its own. Here is the links:

(this is 9v output, useful for switches)
 

@Sudarshan61 Not necessarily, even though a regular UPS comes with a 7 AH 12 V battery, it doesn't give a 4-5 or hour or more battery backup for a 6w load.

Whereas these mini UPS', with a 2 AH battery give a 3-4 hour backup for a similar load.
