Intel PRO/100 VM card - Can only get 10Mbps

[Guest]

Can only get this to connect at 10Mbps. I know the port and lan cable
is OK because my colleague can use my connection and gets 100Mbps. And
I can also only get 10Mbps on his cable.


PC is an IBM Intellistation M Pro.


Can't even find any documentation for this card. Just wondering if its
been jumper switched to 10MKbps ?

What OS? If Windoze, try checking the device in Device Manager to see
if it's been configured that way deliberately. I also assume you have
the latest drivers, and haven't got some wierd cable problem...

Are you sure this is a 100Base-TX card?
It could also be a 100Base-T4 card.

You should find information at the Intel web site.
This page should help you identify the card:
