Hi there everyone...

Is there a way to force my Intel Pro/1000MT card to work at 100 Mbits that 
I'm overlooking?  (I need to do so for loops that tech support at netgear 
is putting me through to prove to them that their switch is broken.)

I tried using ethtool to do so and it just doesn't seem to want to correct 
anything...

Thanks!
Shaun
