Yep. If you are on a 2.4 kernel, there is a package called: ethtool syntax is something like: ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full autoneg off Run it by itself to get the syntax for your particular setting/environment. Now where you put this in the bootup sequence is upto you. I typically make a file called: /etc/init.d/localmisc.sh With all of my "localizations" in it. I call it from either bootmisc.sh just before the ":exit 0" or add the proper symlinks to the proper runlevel directories.
