[50]mobile2/home/moar/mii#mii-diag -A 0x1e1 -w eth0
  Setting the media capability advertisement register of PHY #0 to 0x01e1.
Basic registers of MII PHY #0:  1000 282d 0300 e54b 00a1 45e1 0001 0000.
  Basic mode control register 0x1000: Auto-negotiation enabled.
  You have link beat, and everything is working OK.
  Your link partner advertised 45e1: Flow-control 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx 
10baseT-FD 10baseT, w/ 802.3X flow control.
11:01:35.000  Baseline value of MII BMSR (basic mode status register) is 282d.

Unfortunately, nothing happens. Link status on my switching
equipment stays 100mb half duplex. Nothing happens even after
few minutes.

Still hoping to find a solution ;)

regards,

christoph.
