Ping Loss Issues to RB911 board via a RB750UP

Alright here is my current problem: I have an AP (RB911 5 GHz) and it is powered by a RB750UP switch. We monitor our connection status via pings and log each ping response that is sent/received by the device. My issue is that when the AP is connected through the switch it will drop 4-5 consecutive pings, effectively killing all connections, then returns back to a normal response time. I have bypassed the RB750UP with a standard Ubiquity POE injector I had on hand and that seems to have solved the problem. Set up is as follows:

RB750UP:
ROS 6.12 FW 3.13
Ports 1-5 bridged
Port 1 - Uplink to main HP switch - flow control tx/rx (same on switch, attempted test off and on)
Port 3 - POE to RB911G-5HPnD - flow control tx/rx all other settings default

RB911G-5HPnD:
ROS 6.12 FW 3.14
wlan1 and eth1 bridged
eth1 - POE/Connection to switch - flow control tx/rx

Can anybody shed light on why this would occur? I can provide screenshots if needed

Thanks!

It is probably one of a few different things. It could be the settings... you can post your settings to get another set of eyes on it. It could be hardware failure. Have you tested each of the ports to verify they can handle the traffic? Also, test it with lower speed setting like 10M half duplex. How much traffic is hitting the interfaces? Is there the problem still there if the AP is connected, but it doesn't have stations on it?
