I have been observing it a bit more. Moved the Roku back to port 2, and it hasn't dropped once all day yesterday, even had the xbox on that port for a few hours without issues :smileyfrustrated:. I'll keep a closer eye on it since I still have until June for warranty, but it hasn't been cosistently dropping day in and day out yet to confirm anything.
As for Device Manager misrepresenting port numbers, since it is an early unit issue, should I just live with it or open an RMA case?

Up to you... Since you've got one port that's not working, it might be worth RMA'ing.
