Only set the interface hard if the other side does that as well. You can set it to 100 Mbit Full duplex, but if the other side does not force it to the same value it will autonegotiate from the ISP or switch to Half Duplex. Overruns and runts galore. If you put a unmanaged switch in between you will get this. If the ISP switch is set to auto it will do the same thing. So just leave it on auto, setting interfaces hard shouldn't be needed anymore since we helft Nortel gear behind in the year 2000.
