Internet is frequently going out for a few seconds at a time

Every time I lose internet, I check my phone and it's gone from wifi to 5G.

How can I determine if this is my internet or my router? I have my own personal modem. Would a log potentially report small outages like this?

Thank you.

Internet keeps cutting out for a few seconds at a time

I can't tell if this is an ISP or a router issue. Are there any router logs that I can look at?

I have an RBR750 with two satellites. The system has worked reliably for several years.

Thank you.

Darnestown Rd McDonald's finally corrected the street spelling

This always bugged me. How can you not know how to spell your own address?

I just noticed they finally corrected it

New York state ties online services accounts for professionals to an EFIN. They state that you must be an owner or officer of the firm. How does this work with large firms with multiple professionals?

Do they allow for separate user accounts beneath the administrator account? It's so inefficient to only allow one account. I keep calling and getting disconnected because their phone agents are all busy. It would be so much easier if I could access my client's accounts online

I'm a CPA. I've been sitting at a desk for about 10-12 hours a day for a few months. The date after the 4/15 deadline I took the day off. I started to feel lower back pain and a little knee pain. Went into work on Friday.

I could not stand up straight from a sitting position. At first, just to get some relief, I called and got a appointment at my primary care doctor's office for that afternoon.

She did some half-hearted testing of my knee reflexes, prescribed a muscle relaxer and gave me from back stretches.

But something changed Friday night. The pain had shifted from my lower back down into my right leg, mainly my knee.

On Saturday I went to urgent care since I knew they had an x-ray there. They didn't see anything on the x-ray and sent a prescription that was basically OTC Voltaren, which I already had. God knows why that never got filled - awaiting insurance approval. I didn't even need it.

The pain was not going away so on Monday morning, I woke up early and called my orthopedic office. Surprisingly, they had a 9am appointment.

At this point, I really thought it was my knee. So they set my appointment with a knee doc. They wanted their x-ray of the knee and saw nothing. Then he had me stand up and lean forward, then back. He said it is my back.

He prescribed a Methylprednisolone 4 Mg Dosepk. About halfway through, I was not getting any better. Reaching these doctors is impossible. I had to email the medical assistant and wait for responses. Finally, on Friday they agreed to write an order for an MRI.

Got the MRI on Saturday and on Monday I made an appointment for the back specialist in the same practice.

He said I have a pinched nerve between my L2 and L3. He wrote an order to get an epidural cortisone shot. He said someone would call me to schedule. No one called.

I finally got relentless today and kept calling, trying to get someone live on the phone. First, they say I need a consultation appointment this Wednesday and I can get the procedure on Friday.

Then I am told, no, I don't need the consultation as I am a referral from the other doctor in the practice. But he does these on Tuesdays now, not Fridays.

I was ineligible to get it tomorrow because I had taken ibuprofen in the past few days. I'm so pissed that I have to wait another week to hopefully get some relief.

Had they actually called me when they were supposed to I would have known to stop ibuprofen.

Sleeping at night is the worst. I got them to call in Tramadol to try to help the pain at night.

Sorry for the long post. Thank you for sticking around if you got this far.

I'm emailing myself from my work email. I start to type xxxx@gmail.com and it autofills xxxx@gmail.cm. I have myself entered as a contact too.

I have tried hitting delete when the incorrect email pops up. I've tried hitting the x, but it keeps coming back.

How can I get rid of this for good?

Thanks.
