The simple way to know whether you are using half-duplex or not is run: 

ethtool

you can use it to change NIC's mode. 

I deliberately changed mine into half-duplex/10M because if it is
100M/duplex, the connection is very slow with my pppoe link. 

Don't worry too much if you are using a 10M network anyway.
