First of all, try avoiding autosense. Autosense sucks. Autosense is a pain.
Force it into the correct mode (10 or 100, hdx or fdx).
Be sure that the mode you use is the same on computer and switch. Netstat -I xl0
or Netstat -I xl1 can report collisions or troubles. Your switch may also report
something usefull.
