Hi Ben,

Thanks for your reply. I tried on my ubuntu. The ethtool also doesn't work.

Here is the output.
sudo ethtool -s s1-eth1 speed 100
Cannot set new settings: Operation not supported
  not setting speed

Does this mean the virtual NIC doesn't support changing the link speed? I
asked one of my friends he said the command works fine with his physical
NIC. Cause I'm using ubuntu as the virtual machine with my Mac, I don't
have any physical NIC to test it out. My ubuntu is 12.04.0.

Many thanks
