I too have experienced Ethernet deafness on a 7100 using the on-board Ethernet. (Wasn't running SIMS either.) When the problem occurs, can you ping the 7100? Try running a browser on it and see if, when it stops allowing POP connections, you can browse the net. Or use any other application that uses TCP/IP or Ethernet. Turn on file sharing and share something. Then see if other machines on the network can "see" it. There are lots of ways to test for overall Ethernet deafness. -- "Your new computer's not gonna be a Mac?
