Thanks for the quickest response.
I've downloaded ethtool-1.6.tar.gz from the freshmeat.net, and customized the "ethtool.c"
It's giving the Speed of 10Mb/s.

For ethernet interfaces (devices), you should be able to determine the negotiated speed with either a device specific diagnostic utility (e.g., tulip-diag), or, with recent kernels and drivers, mii-diag, mii-tool, and the preferred ethtool.
You can find the source to ethtool here:

If this doesn't provide your answer, you may find a faster (if terser) answer from linux-net....as for determining speed of a serial link from the interface or device--I have no idea! Maybe somebody else on the list?
Best of luck,
