Re: C5 64-bit on Dell not seeing 1 GB link

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I've got a Dell Precision Workstation 490 with 64-bit Centos 5, fully updated, with an on-board Broadcom 57xx gigabit Ethernet controller, updated BIOS, 1 GB switch, and /var/log/messages and dmesg both claim the link is 100 Mb, not 1 GB.

I tried setting eth0 to mtu 9000 but got an error in going so.

What do I need to do to have the card see 1 gb?

I would run "ethtool eth0" and look at the output. What does ethtool think your card is running at? I would also run "ethtool -s eth0 autoneg on" which should set the card in autonegotiation mode .. which should set your card to 1 Gb.
