Hello managers,

Mi original question:

  A simple question, How I can set the "auto negotiation" option of my
  DEC Tulip network device?.. actually it is off so I guess it is working
  to 10Mbps and I want to setup it to 100Mbps

Thanks to:

  Darrell King <darrellk_at_apion-ti.com>
  Ian Mortimer <ian_at_physics.uq.edu.au>
  Ed Bush <edbush_at_llnl.gov>
  Richard L Jackson Jr <rjackson_at_portal.gmu.edu>
  Alan Angulo <alan_at_esu.edu>

The solution was shutdown the machine to console prompt and do a

>> set ewa0_mode fastfd (this mean 100M full duplex)

Also add "speed 200" to the IFCONFIG line of /etc/rc.config
See ifconfig(8) for details

Thanks again
