With my KNE111TX this gives steady green on the Link; Act; and FDX LEDs
on module installation.  The 100 LED is off.  However, I'm pretty sure
that the connection is 100/FDX.  The 21140-AF KNE100TX on the other end
of the cross over cable shows steady green on Link; 100; FDX LEDs.

A ping from a remote system causes the Link LED to flash (in reverse?
Black flashes against steady green).  Cancelling the ping causes the
LEDs to revert to steady green on the Link; Act; and FDX.

A ping to a remote system does the same.

Thanks again.  If there is anything further I can do to help please let
me know.
