Mine is detected in half-duplex, but I can flip it to full by putting a line like this in /etc/rc.conf.local: ifconfig_xl0="inet <ipaddress> media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex" I've been assuming that the detection problem was because I just have mine on a crossover cable (no hub) which 3Com says can cause this problem. Since you see this on a hub though, perhaps there is a bug in the detection logic in the driver. In any case, you should be able to force it in the rc files or by using ifconfig yourself. -- Kevin Street street@iName.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
