ethernet errors, collisions



hi!

i have cable at home, and about 2 days ago changed my wan nic from a
d-link pci to a 3-com isa - also changed from 10/100 to 10-base-T. but,
the cable model is only 10-base, so that shouldn't matter. i wanted to
have 100 mb on the lan side.
anyway, i just noticed i have "errors" on the interface:

    RX packets:1636369 errors:22789 dropped:0 overruns:23082 frame:22789
    TX packets:515767 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:2
    collisions:1025 txqueuelen:100
    RX bytes:417892134 (398.5 MiB)      TX bytes:54713589 (52.1 MiB)


any ideas what can be causing that? my cable provider is running DHCP -
i never had a problem with dhcp before (renewing) but twice now i've had
to "ifdown/ifup" to force it to renew. could be a problem with nic?
or could this be problems from the cable provider/coaxial cable? the
thing is, with the other nic (pci/brand/speed) i never saw errors.

tia,
jason
