What kind of switch are you connecting to? Managed? Autosense enabled on the
switch ports? Is it a 100Mbps capable device? I personally don't like using
autosense if there are other options (although with some switches autosense
works better than locking down the speed/duplex setting on the client
itself).
Have you updated the NIC drivers? Tried another cable/different port on the
switch?
