Fast translates as 100 Mb/s half duplex and you wouldn't want that.
Auto is not always sufficient. There are two auto modes, auto negotiate and auto sensing.
IMHO the latter is better avoided.

Use "set ewb0_mode fast" or "set ewb0_mode auto" SRM command.

I thought they support 100 mbps as well? How do I turn that on? It's currently
connected to a Gbps switch.
