Coax is 10 megabits maximum.
What is the card in your FreeBSD box?
Linux's ifconfig might not, I'm not sure, but dmesg will show the connection type and
speed.

Yup. Are all combo cards only 10-base-T?
I wasn't sure if Linux's ifconfig showed 100-base-T selected or not.
On my firewall which has FreeBSD, it shows this. Note the line that
says 'media'. I'm not sure if Linux has this or not:
