I have a FIOS system at my house. The main router is downstairs and I
had been getting my internet via the wireless signal. It was OK, had
the occasional drop out, and my bandwidth got a little constricted when
a couple of the other folks that live here would start
streaming/downloading stuff over the same wireless signal. 

Since I am getting a SQ touch soon, I thought that things would work
best if I had both it and my computer/SB server wired up via ethernet.
After doing a little digging, it seemed as though using moca was an
obvious choice to get a wired system upstairs. I bought a used
actiontec mi424wr (rev a) and hooked it upstairs. I got it instead of
one of the new moca router solutions because this has a built in 4 port
ethernet switch. Here's where the problem is... The wireless works
great, it is noticeably faster than before, but the wired part only
works at all if I set it down to 10mbs! If I set the ethernet ports to
"auto" or 100mbs, the ethernet LAN light just blinks and I can't even
ping the router! Once I set it back to 10mbs, it works fine but slower
than my wireless signal. Any ideas on how to get the ports working on
auto or 100mbs? Any help you could send my way would be appreciated!

Isaac
