    Thank you guys for all your help. It WAS crazy. I live in FL and perhaps there were some storm issues. In anycase, I just got several UPS's for the network and components now. Wondering if Lightning went through the line or something. I just ran a test and I got ~60MB/sec to the computer...

    I just took a look at the Main PC and FLOW control is disabled. Interesting enough though..I looked at the Settings on the Card (Realtec Gigabit NIC) and it says connected at 100 Mbps even though the settings have it on 1 Gbps Full Duplex. Now I am scratching my head....

    Ok The PoE is just going to a room that I couldnt get to Via a LAN cable. It is there for my wife to plug into, as the WiFi was too slow (She does a lot of file transfers for her business and remote terminal connections). Over Regular G, it was just too slow. This helped a lot. So to try...
