I have this laptop here with an Intel gigabit chipset onboard. When I
look at the speed/duplex configuration section of the driver
configuration under Windows XP, the choices I am presented with are full
auto, 10Mbps half, 10Mbps full, 100Mbps half, 100Mbps full and 1000Mbps
auto.
How come there's no 1000Mbps half/full settings? The performance
problems I'm having are when I'm connecting to a gigabit network. Will
setting to 1000Mbps auto help?
