Hi, Pretty much as title.
How can I check the "real" connection speed of a NIC? These are realtek 8129/8139 network cards. The leds behind the NIC aren't exactly informative. I was hoping there was some way to do this directly in linux through a hardware call. I checked /proc and i couldn't find anything pertaining to this. On a related note, how can I check if the card is in "promisc" mode? Some software seems to leave it in promisc mode... so once I find out if it IS in promisc mode, how can i switch it back? Thanks in advance. Sincerely, Jason
