I have a network configured with the Netgear FA310TX ethernet cards and
Netgear 8 port hub. Cards are 10/100 and hub is 10/100 autosensing. On
bootup both FreeBSD machines default to:

   media: 100BaseTX (half-duplex)

Would there be any advantage in running the entire network at full
duplex? If so, how do I specify this in ifconfig?

Thanks in advance,
Ric
