Ghaith,
I think that you shouldn't do this this way, but so be it. It's
generally spekaing to 'force' a specific setting. In most cards and
switches this disables all negotiation, and can lead to all sorts of
strange problems. Especially regard duplex issues.
Wow, a little latency when typing goes a long way. Please let me clarify that.
Generally speaking it's a bad thing to force a specific setting on
hubs, switches, and NICs. In most cases this can lead to all sorts of
strange problems. Especially regard duplex issues.
