Does anyone know how to force your xircom CE3 > cards up to 100Mbps? Hmm... 'ifconfig xe0 media 100baseTX' works for me. Admittedly on -CURRENT, but it will be the same media keyword on 4.x. I'm pretty sure this worked the last time I used the driver on 4.x. Can you force it into 10Mbps mode (media 10baseT/UTP)?
