Yeah, BT do this in the UK. It's inexplicable and frustrating. In *some* 
cases, I've seen them present a circuit with autoneg off, then fail to 
"wr mem" the config, so when power loss occurs, it comes back up with 
autoneg *on*, and the line goes down. You then enable autoneg, and a few 
hours later their NMS / clueless ops staff disable it... and the line 
goes down!

I don't think it's technical TBH. I suspect it's just "telco" mindset - 
"force all the params to on/fast/full and it's better, right?"
