Thanks for confirming my conclusion. Quite a lot of time used, but never wasted.
I am a little concerned that I may not be the only one to have wandered down this path, and that others may have given up, or spent money on switches, cables, even PCs. I think it would be as well to ensure any future advice to people about 'fixing' NIC speeds is very precise, and given with caveats where there is no clear option or indication about the chosen option. Maybe it should be included in the TT 2.0 information sheet and/or blog? On my laptop the NIC does not appear to have an autoneg 100mb option - it just says 100mb fd. My desktop NIC has both options (with and without autoneg), which is what led me to look at wikipedia (for more than just the name of a footballer) and then wonder if there would be a detectable difference. There was. I am also trying unqualified Autonegotiate without any hiccups thus far. -- PasTim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PasTim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41642 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84742 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
