Subject: Can't set Full Duplex on 3COM 3C905B-TX

I am having difficulty to make my nic using Duplex. The nic setting is
autodetect, but even I tried to force it to full duplex, freeBSD still
showing half-duplex during boot time.

Can someone point out what I am missing here?

Here is some information of my box.

OS: FreeBSD 3.1
NIC: 3COM 3C905B-TX  (setting is autodetect)
