>From the m0n0 documentation (hidden options in the config.xml file). Same like

interfaces/(if)/media and interfaces/(if)/mediaopt
If you need to force your NIC to a specific media type (e.g. 10Base-T half
duplex), you can use these two options. Refer to the appropriate FreeBSD
manpage for the driver you're using to see which options are available (or run
ifconfig -m).
You can "diagnostics>edit file" /conf/config.xml to make this from the webgui.
Example (but issue ifconfig -m from "diagnostics>command" to see the options of
your specific card first, they might be different):
<opt1>
<descr>Michelbach entfernt</descr>
<if>sis2</if>
<mtu>576</mtu>
<media>10baseT/UTP</media>
<mediaopt>full-duplex</mediaopt>
<ipaddr>10.10.15.10</ipaddr>
<subnet>24</subnet>
<bridge/>
<enable/>
</opt1>

Betreff: [pfSense Support] iperf question
I know this isn't likely the best forum for this question, but please
bear with me.
I've been seeing a lot of these iperf comments/questions, and decided to
try to track down why my connection to my home firewall seems *so slow*.
Installed the package and fired it up, and sure enough - although both
ends are reporting they're negotiated at 100Mb/s, I'm only getting
~22Mb, which reeks strongly of 10Mb full-duplex. It's
switch-independent - already swapped that out and tried. My next step
is to hook a laptop directly up to both machines and give it a whirl
(rule out a faulty cable).
In the meantime, is there anything I can do on pfSense to fiddle with
autonegotiation settings like I can with ethtool on my Linux machines?
I don't have any traffic shaping set up, so I can't see why that would
come into play, but I'm all ears here.

*BTW - I noticed a while back that pfSense had my favorite alias 'll'.
It "doesn't" now, and looking in root's home directory, it looks like
.tcshrc is zeroed out - either it was originally linked to .cshrc or
someone's whacked it. Minor bug that should be ironed out before beta,
I should think - I'll post a ticket when I get around to it, unless
someone beats me to it (fixing or otherwise).
