It autonegotiates the connection with the opposite end (your modem). Looks like your modem at WAN only can do 10baseT/UTP which is 10 mbit/s halfduplex. In that case you will see some collisions from time to time. In case it's a complete mismatch (one end runs other settings like the other) you will have pretty much collisions or up to (nearly) not usable connection. There are some hidden options to set mode for pfSense but I really recommend not using them as this might make things work (see http://faq.pfsense.com/index.php?action=artikel&cat=10&id=38&artlang=en&highlight=hidden ). I guess it's just yourmodem that can't do a better mode.
