I figured out how to force 10 megabit full duplex on my ethernet interface. The trick is i need it to stick in case of a reboot so i don't have to reforce it. I have not been able to figure that one out yet. I have not found it in the man's or google yet. If someone could point me in the right direction i would be much obliged. -- My "Foundation" verse: Isa 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn.

Is the ethernet port in question connect to a switch? Might try forcing the port on the switch to 10 Mbit full duplex. If it is on default the switch will negotiate the speed. If you are using a Cisco switch might look something like this: ! interface FastEthernet4 no ip address duplex full speed 10 !
