hi, i was requested to change the "media speed" for mi thernet adapter ent0, it was before = 100 half duplex. i had to change it to 100 full duplex. but, i am notice that now when i use ftp from one server or from a client, it is very slow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so so slow, before i made the change, it was much more faster... is there something i might checkout?? anyone know what would happen??

i executed this command=
entstat -d en0

you have to make sure it's not trying to auto negotiate with the switch as well.

or worse, that the switch is set at 1/2 duplex.
