Hello Craddman,
Welcome to the community!
You pretty much have isolated you issue and pointed our that whenever you use the GS605 it gives you a bunch or errors/issue. These model should not really affect your network unless they are bad, mostly caused by a bad power supply or a bad unit. You know that the GS605 is a passthrough unit only and there is not much to troubleshoot on. You can test it out by using a different power supply if you have one, or swap it to the location of the GS105. If this would not make any difference,we'll call it a bust.
Thanks,

I replaced the switch and the problem went away so that would indicate it was an issue with the switch. I just thought the problem popping up when it did and the fact that I (incorrectly) thought that switches rarely go bad, was a bit suspect. Thanks for the assistance. Most of my networking gear is Netgear so I may be back with other questions/issues.
