100Mbps Ethernet on DEC Alphas

Hi managers,

Is there something that needs to be set for an Alpha running DU4.0d
to recognize and use a 100Mbps ethernet connection?

I'm setting up some Alphas with 10/100BaseT ethernet cards, and when I
hook them up to the 100BaseT hub, I get no network connectivity whatsoever.
However, when I hook up the ethernet to a regular 10BaseT hub, everything
works just fine.

When the machine is booting, the message comes up saying:
"Autonegotiation disabled. Port set to 10Mbps." (Something like that,
anyway)

Thanks for the help.

Tony Warner
