GigaByte Ethernet Card

I have a Gigabyte that looks like it auto set to 1000 and until I can get it upgraded, the router is a 10/100 and I need to be able to set the nic in the server to 100. Ran PHPSysinfo and this is what its showing for the nic: eth0 31.10 MB 1.73 MB 0/2445842372 with the last grouping being err/drops. Can anyone help me with this. TKS

try this (as root):

Code: Select all

ethtool -s eth0 speed 100
ethtool is a bit of a swiss army knife of NIC management (man ethtool).

I recommend also setting the duplexing manually, the command would then be:

Code: Select all

ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full
