Advanced Properties
Select the “Advanced Properties” tab in the utility window to view
the network card’s configuration options. This window is shown
below and the various items are described in the following table.
Link Parameters
The network card’s link speed, PHY type (physical connection to
the network) and duplex mode can all be set from this page.
However, if the “AutoNegotiate Link Parameters” box is checked
these parameters are automatically determined and the
configuration options greyed out. For most Gigabit Ethernet
devices it is recommended to use Auto-Negotiation to set the link
parameters. (Note that network card’s link speed can only be
1000 Mbps and the PHY type is always G/MII.)
