have you tried swapping switch 1 and 2? (since 2 didn't have any issues)
If its a switch/port issue, swapping them would let you check that. If it stays working fine when you swap the 2, something could be bad with the primary switch.
If it keeps dropping, then I'd be checking the cables as its rare for 2 switches to go bad at the same time.

Thnaks for the reply. I'll do a few more days of pings. If it's still limited to switch 3/4, I'll change the ports on Switch 1 and re-test.
So, yes, could be a switch 1 port issue.
