I'll see if I can check the switch out and see what's going on at that

the module/device after it is unloaded and reloaded and not a boot? 
Would there be a difference?

    



These are eternal mysteries.  Despite being assured by people
who should know, I've never found autoneg reliable on any
platform, sun, hp, windows, linux


  
Also is there away to manually configure the module/eth0 device to just 
start up with these settings?
    

Yeah, usually in /etc/modprobe.conf.  You'll have to look
at the docs for your card most likely.
