Re: 10/100Base-T Question
As I remember from some chats with people who work with ethernet hardware.. the
card itself should automatically switch between 10 and 100 when it needs to (or
when it can) and it is not up to the driver to take care of this. (Of course I
could be wrong and talking out my a** again.)
