I think we all agree that autonegotiation is evil, and should be avoided whenever possible. When you are looking for the root cause of the errors on your 3660, look at the speed and duplex settings for each device connecting to the etherstack hub. If one of those is miss-configured or possibly has a failing NIC, bad packets will be transmitted out all ports on the hub and will show up in the "show int f0/0" output on your router.

[...] I'd like to thank Cisco for this piece of advice, as the only company incapable of manufacturing Ethernet equipment capable of autonegotiation. At least until 1999 or so. Yeah, there're a few others, all of which seemed to follow Cisco's lead. Nutty. Peter E.
