It could very likely be a autonegotiate function which falls back to 10 Mbit somewhere, I had such a case in a school just today. A 10/100 3com switch together with a GBit card ended up with 10 Mbit. Some cards work with ethtool, others with mii-tool, both come on the Skolelinux cd. tjener:~# mii-tool eth0 eth0: no autonegotiation, 10baseT-HD, link ok tjener:~# ethtool eth0 Cannot get device settings: Operation not supported so, one works with this card, the other doesn't. Try both and see what it tells you. Also look at man mii-tool (man:mii-tool in konqueror) man eththool (man:eththool in konqueror) - -- Klaus http://www.holmlia.gs.oslo.no -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAhXrmhJ+fXyb6R30RAk/HAJ9V56K5XK6BIciKa8HWDTxK/Zc+xwCdFESP FOmeYGscTJlMs+Habd1BDb8= =KOPm -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
