>Hello, > I have a 2.1.6-Release box, and recently installed an SMC Etherpower >10/100. The card is old, at least a year or two, so it doesn't have the >"newer" chipset. The card is connected to a 10/100mbs ethernet switch. >When FreeBSD comes up, it "enables" the 10BaseT port, instead of the 100mbs >port. Is there a way to get FreeBSD to force it to 100mbs instead of 10? >I have verified that the port on the switch does 100mbs, by connecting >other equipment to that port. But I haven't figured out how to tell >FreeBSD to use it in the 100mbs mode. Try the "link2" option to ifconfig. -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project
