Question Nic -> 1000 MB ?


I am trying to set my gigabit NIC to 1000 MB setting using ethtool. The only way I can get it to register that way is to turn off auto negotiation and that just kills my signal.

Below is the output of the current settings and the commands I have attempted with zero success.

Any thoughts/direction would be appreciated.
