This is also a "For what it is worth" addition...

Yup, this connection is static, so clearly not that issue.

On my post Pi reboot test I started by powering off my computer, then "draining 
it" by turning off the power supply switch then hitting the power button which 
gives a click from the speaker. Only then do I turn the power supply back on 
and again hitting the power button to power up. Interestingly this *did* then 
find the NIC to work fine. Problem solved?, nope. I then rebooted to see the 
problem still there. This did allow me to test my new desktop icon to run an 
ssh over to the Pi (once I see WiFi up). The script (ssh pi 'sudo mii-tool 
--reset eth0') works fine. So I am done with this, I will just watch to see if 
something mysteriously fixes it eventually. But I will be happy to test 
anything else people might want me to try.

Thanks all for the help.
