There is no such options: it's always using Auto-Negotiation.

Ok, so I tried:

ifconfig xl0 mediaopt autoselect

but I get:

ifconfig: SIOCSIFMEDIA: Device not configured



Would this mean that either the card or the driver do not support auto configuration?
(and thus I would be stuck to half-duplex?)
