The switch in question is unlikely to have this "green" feature. It's a really cheap 5-port thing that's several years old - could be as much as 10 years old now.

Yes, I know for certain that it is configured for wired ethernet. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I removed the wireless card and it made no difference. I know Squeezeboxes are clever devices, but I think even they can't connect to WiFi without a wireless card installed :-) Bottom line: I think the most likely explanantion is that one specific port on the switch is a little down on power, and the SB2 happens to be more tolerant of this than the SB3.
