mii-tool is no longer in development, it is therefore a better idea to use
ethtool, especially with gigabit cards.
I also believe that ethtool has quite a few more functions than mii-tool.

Shouldn't most network cards/hubs/switches be able to auto-sense?

Good Hardware is not the answer. Even with all Cisco equipment
and high end cards you will still eventually run into the problem of
endless autosensing. This is horrible for network
performance. You need to push the card into 100 Full Duplex on
startup either through ethtool or via a driver

I think mii-tool can be used to set the speed duplex on a card.
Hope this helps,

check for available options with 'modinfo module_name'
Create a file for your network card in /etc/modules.d and run
'modules-update' to re-create /etc/modules.conf. Then stop your network
and unload the module.
When you restart the network the options should get picked-up from
/etc/modules.conf
