Can someone please tell me what the best NIC setting for DSL is?
I remember reading something about how it may be ISP dependent, but it doesn't explain what to set it to.
Right now under the NIC config settings it's set to Automatic.
What should I set it to?
I' running Windows XP Pro, DSL (PPPoE).
Thanks.
Any Suggestions?

Intel P4 2.6CGhz @ 800Mhz FSB / 1GB PC3200 DDR400 Corsair (Dual Channel)/ ATi Radeon 9600Pro 128 @ AGP 8x / Creative Audigy 2! / DSL PPPOE / Windows XP Professional / 2x40GB Maxtor (7200 rpm) ATA 133 in RAID0
depends to devices attached to NIC
details can be find in manuals (description of devices)
modem to NIC - most 10Mbps fullduplex (check LAN side of your modem)
only few 100Mbps
router to NIC - 100Mbps fullduplex (but read about LAN side of your router)
only few 10Mbps
only few 200Mbps
fullduplex mean
...twice, both directions, in the same time, without collisions
