EWA running at 100Mb

Dear all DU folk,
        I have a number of Du Alpha 800s with DE500-AA network controllers.
These appear to boot up to with autonegotiation off and thus start running
at 10Mb half duplex.
        I have added "speed 100" to the:

        IFCONFIG_0="10.20.63.102 netmask 255.255.240.0"

line in /etc/rc.config but this met with unfortunate results in that IP
could not talk outside the NIC. Localhost and hostname were reachable.

I understand I need to turn on "autonegotiation" to enable my card to speak
to the world.

Where and how do I do this.

TIA

Malcolm Condie
