can see poor
network
connections or
excessive numbers
of dropped packets.
The interoperability
issue arises when a
module with a ten
bit interface (TBI)
transmits an odd
byte packet to a
receiver with a
Gigabit
media−independent
interface (GMII).
Carrier Extension is
detailed in subsection
35.2.3.5 in the IEEE
802.3 specification.
Carrier Extension can
be used to pad the last
byte of a packet, so
the packet is aligned
on an even−numbered
boundary.

QFE Card
Unable to manually
set speed and
duplex correctly.
Manually setting
speed and duplex
only affects the first
of four ports.
Contact vendor technical
support to obtain the
latest driver to resolve
the issue.

v1.1 Gigabit Cards Unable to establish
link.
V1.1 can potentially
not establish link to

Ethernet 10/100
CE3B−100
Not negotiating or
operating correctly
at 100 Mbps,
full−duplex.
Full−duplex operation
is only supported at
10 Mbps. Full−duplex
is not supported at
100 Mbps. The
LineMode keyword
has no effect on
performance at 100
Mbps. If the
LineSpeed keyword
is set to 100 Mbps
and the LineMode
keyword is set to
full−duplex, the
LineMode keyword is
ignored. Full−duplex
at 10 Mbps is only
available when the
adapter is connected
to a
full−duplex−capable
switch or hub.
Do not operate this NIC
at 100 Mbps,
full−duplex.

Ethernet 10/100
CE3B−100
Not negotiating 10
Mbps full−duplex.
The CE3 and, in some
cases, the CE3B are
not capable of
negotiating to 10
Mbps, full−duplex
mode.
On these adapters, in
order to operate in
full−duplex mode, the
LineSpeed keyword must
be set to 10 Mbps, and
the LineMode keyword
must be set to
full−duplex. The cable
