Not sure about the "can't get device settings", and I'm just not sure if
order is significant in the command, but the manpage, and past experience,
says that after the interface name, you *have* to have autoneg off,
otherwise forcing settings is a contradiction in terms.

The other question is what the switch you're connecting to is set to.
