All I needed to do was ifconfig de0 media 100BaseTX for the switch. The funny thing I can't figure out is that our 100BaseT hub when the de0 card is plugged into it, the de0 will detect as 10Bt and it won't communicate until I manually do the media setting. Is there a reason, it won't negotiate with the 100BT hub?
