Hi, I have an SMC1211TX EZCard 10/100 connected to a hub with some windows
machines. I am having problems with switching the media type with mii-diag.
I had it working when I first installed it and then I tried switching it to
100mbit to find out that my hub is only 10mbit. Then I tried switching it
back and now it takes a few minutes to transfer a few meg. I want to change
it to whatever mode hex value of 0xf110 was (I think, if not what should I
change it to???). I have changed it to both 10baseT (0xf100) and 10baseT-FDX
(0xf101). Also, is there a table of these values somehwere. I can't find it
on the site.
Other stuff that I don't know if it will be helpful or not...
