FInding out the mode an ethernet card is working

Tags:

Hi there. How do I find out wether my network card is working at 100Mbps or at 1Gbps?... iwconfig, for example, tells me if the LAN is operating in ieee802.11b or g (there is a "bit rate" field). But what about wired cards?... Any /proc hack?

If 'ifconfig' doesn't already give you that information, use 'dmesg' to find the message about what speed was negotiated.
