So apparently no bad wires, but it leaves me with the question, why?
What happened to cause this?
there is likely still a bad wire or similar hardware issue going on
somewhere. what you've done is instruct the network interface to ignore any
errors or warning signs and set the higher speed regardless. this may work
just fine, or it may cause mysterious behavior in the future. at which
time, you will of course have forgotten about all of this and we'll all be
wondering why you get random web page timeouts or whatever.
Agreed. It's likely that there is a bad cable or connector somewhere in
the path. As someone else suggested, it would be good to test it using
a cable that is normally used by another functional 1G connection.
