Wow! I haven't even received a copy of my posting and I've already received
7 answers.


There seem to be 5 ways to change the nic's settings:

1)
in /etc/rc.config: use the IFCONFIG_0 and change the speed from 100 (100
mbps half-duplex) to 200 (100 mbps full-duplex).


2)
at the console >>> prompt issue 'set ewa0_mode FastFD'


3)
using lan_config issue: lan_config -i tu0 -a 0 -s 100 -x 1


4)
put the lan_config command (lan_config -i tu0 -a 0 -s 100 -x 1) into the
/etc/inet.local file


5)
* to do that at the os prompt:
consvar -g ewa0_mode to get the value
consvar -s ewa0_mode=fastfd to set the value
ed. note: I tried this and it didn't work but since the other ways did work
I didn't pursue it.
