No green light, no connectivity. How does one change the link : speed and/or duplex settings for this card? I tried using the 'media' : argument to ifconfig, but every keyword after 'media' seems to be rejected, : as if 'media' is not supported for this card. I then tried using the older : 'link' flags, 0, 1 and 2, and all eight combinations didn't seem to make : any difference. So what's the magic incantation? ;-) ifconfig ep0 media 10baseT/UTP should do the trick. At least it does for the rl driver here at work. The cards we're using has a poor autonegitation skills (don't know if this is a driver or a device issue, since I moved on to other problems after discovering the workaround).
