Hi

What is your NIC driver?
Check your /etc/modules.conf or dmesg to find what is the driver.

If your NIC support mii, then try /sbin/mii-tool to see current speed.

Good luck

Hey!
Massanari's recomendation is tops!

man mii-tool for syntax on the command, but if your device supports it, then

/sbin/mii-tool -F 100BaseTx-FD eth0

will force eth0 to 100/FD.

pretty cool.
