There is no such options: it's always using Auto-Negotiation. >If the last, the default is to fall in half duplex degradated mode. >Auto configuration will only work when both ends are set to auto. Ok, so I tried: ifconfig xl0 mediaopt autoselect but I get: ifconfig: SIOCSIFMEDIA: Device not configured Would this mean that either the card or the driver do not support auto configuration? (and thus I would be stuck to half-duplex?) bye & Thanks av.
