yeah --

# mii-diag -R eth0
Resetting the transceiver...
Basic registers of MII PHY #0:  3000 2809 0300 e54b 00a1 0000 0000 0000.
 Basic mode control register 0x3000: Auto-negotiation enabled.
 Basic mode status register 0x2809 ... 2809.
   Link status: not established.
   End of basic transceiver informaion.

# mii-diag
Using the default interface 'eth0'.
Basic registers of MII PHY #0:  3000 282d 0300 e54b 00a1 45e1 0003 0000.
 The autonegotiated capability is 00a0.
The autonegotiated media type is 100baseTx.
 Basic mode control register 0x3000: 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.
   End of basic transceiver informaion.


but wget on the router itself is still slow...  (i'm guessing the only
reason there's a difference between wget on the router and wget on a
host on another segment routed through this interface is timing of acks...)
