autosense may in fact not work, especially on low-quality NICs like rl.


I don't agree to that.
I had similar problems with my network using a cheap switch with some realtek nics. I had the nics running 100baseTX Full Duplex.
Changing this to autosense made the problems gone.


I would second that. My cheap rl card performs better with auto than with either 100TX-full or 100TX-half ('tho its always auto'ed to 100TX full duplex anyway).

And by way of interest, I have just experienced a similar problem with NICs + 100 baseT switch - it was a 3Com Office connect card (xl driver) that I had the issues with, and ended up replacing it with a DLink (vr driver).

Cheers
