Have you checked to see if your NIC actually supports turning off auto-negotiation? What happens when you execute the following fro the command line:
Also, is this NIC bonded or a slave?
Ok at the moment I have a hub whit 5 computers connected to it. It's a 10/100 NetGear hub.
Ok I heard that there is some command I can run or a file I edit or something like that. But what the command/file/script/whatever does is tells you what connect speed it's connecting to the hub to.

Dear Members,
I was reading a few posts and saw something about installing two Nics so one could use Full Duplex. I remember back in the day of dial up, you could have two modems and use one for upstream and one for downstream. This was called shotgunning. It seems that you can now do the same... (4 Replies)
I need to change some Ip addresses for my servers to reflect in the NIS map.
I also need to force full duplex on the 10/100 cards & 1/2 duplex in the 10 cards.
I can change the IP by doing ifconfig <NIC card > plumb up <newip>.
Not quite sure on how to force the full / half duplex & how to... (2 Replies)

Hi,
How to find whether the server is running with half duplex or full duplex. I tried with the following command ndd -get /dev/ but am not getting any output,. Is the command correct?
Also let me know how to change from half to full duplex. (1 Reply)
Hello,
here's my situation: I have a C++ server running on a well known machine and a number of Java clients running on other machines (assumed as unknown) on the same LAN. What I want to achieve is full duplex communication between those applications, in order to exchange complex objects and data... (3 Replies)

txp
TXP(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual TXP(4)NAME
txp -- 3Com 3XP Typhoon/Sidewinder (3CR990) Ethernet interface
SYNOPSIS
txp* at pci? dev ? function ?
DESCRIPTION
The txp interface provides access to the 10Mb/s and 100Mb/s Ethernet networks via the 3Com Typhoon/Sidewinder chipset. This driver supports
the following cards:
o 3Com 3CR990-TX-95
o 3Com 3CR990-TX-97
o 3Com 3CR990SVR95
o 3Com 3CR990SVR97
Basic Ethernet functions are provided as well as support for vlan(4) tag removal and insertion assistance, receive ip(4), tcp(4), and udp(4)
checksum offloading, and transmit ip(4) checksum offloading. There is currently no support for transmit tcp(4) or udp(4) checksum offload-
ing, tcp(4) segmentation, nor ipsec(4) acceleration. Note that hardware checksumming is only used when the interface is not in bridge(4)
mode.
Each of the host's network addresses is specified at boot time with an SIOCSIFADDR ioctl(2). The txp interface employs the address resolu-
tion protocol described in arp(4) to dynamically map between Internet and Ethernet addresses on the local network.
When a txp interface is brought up, by default, it will attempt to auto-negotiate the link speed and duplex mode. The speeds, in order of
attempt, are: 100Mb/s Full Duplex, 100Mb/s Half Duplex, 10 Mb/s Full Duplex, and 10 Mb/s Half Duplex.
The txp supports several media types, which are selected via the ifconfig(8) command. The supported media types are:
media autoselect
Attempt to autoselect the media type (default)
media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex
Use 100baseTX, full duplex
media 100baseTX [mediaopt half-duplex]
Use 100baseTX, half duplex
media 10baseT mediaopt full-duplex
Use 10baseT, full duplex
media 10baseT [mediaopt half-duplex]
Use 10baseT, half duplex

The txp driver first appeared in NetBSD 2.0.
