Clyde seems to loosing quite a few Ethernet Ports, which makes me wonder it
there is something in his network that is burning them out, as I have yet to
loose even one.


I have thought about the same thing.   I have had bad electricity in 
the office--I lost 2 ports in my router and the 2 ports in a switch 
connected to those ports in a lightning storm-- and have put surge 
protectors all over including protectors on the cable modem cable. 
But these others just went slowly over time.
        I am coming to beleive that It is probably a bad idea to 
connect a 10/100 computer port to a 10BT in that the 10Bt will 
eventually burn out the more sensitive port.  But I have not 
scientific basis for that superstition.

  But I lost the 7300 slowly at home.   I haven't lost anything else 
at home--yet.   I have read on the web of others having the same 
symptoms in 7300s--it starts with downloads intermittently slowing 
down, and gets worse from there.
