This is true for most 10/100 Base-T implementations I've seen. None of them have been able to reliably auto-detect. Any time I hear someone complain of network throughput problems, this is one of the first things I have them check. However, this would not seem to be the case in this instance, unless 4.7 and 5.x are not handling auto-detect in the same way.One thing I've used in the past that improves Realtek throughput is forcing the media type and duplex setting on both ends of the connection. Autodetect in the 8139s seems to be unreliable at times.
