Could anyone confirm that this could be the cause of some users seeing speed related problems at this time?
Interesting. I can't imagine the SB5100 not being able to auto-negotiate its transmission capacity though. Auto-negotiation is fairly old technology and I would think the SB5100 ethernet controller would be mii aware and able to adjust accordingly. If someones router were old enough though, and not mii capable, it might make the SB5100 go to its default of 100mb-FD. That would cause a problem. Likely dropped frames between the two devices, meaning lots and lots of resent packets etc. So technically it certainly could be a problem.

I don't have an mii unaware 10mb card to test the SB5100 though, this is all based from the technical aspect.
