Hum, it looks like you selected 100baseTX full-duplex, but the adapter
thinks it's in 1000baseT full-duplex mode. I don't know if it's the
real cause of your problem, or just that the driver doesn't update the
values passed to ifconfig properly.
What happens if you use 'media autoselect' ?

What does 'netstat -i' show on the stge0 interface ?
