Thanks Ted. A pretty good (ok excellent) document from Cisco. But are you saying that I should hard code all my switch ports for speed? I mean, I'll display my stupidity here, but I wouldn't know what speed the phone connects at!! And most of the phones have a pc hanging off of them. I think I am getting very close to a solution here, and that would be so nice! (I like your screenname by the way, sort of "cat Scratch fevery"!!!)
<br><br>But what's REALLY odd, is that the 3560 never displays any errors on the port....even though, RARELY, the server will have in the event log that the NIC card lost connection, then regained connection.<br><br>Todd<br>

Check out this link. I don't know how many customers<br>I've worked with that have locked in the switch side<br>and not the terminal side (phone/PC) and can't<br>understand why they are having issues. You can get<br>away with locking in speed in most cases for 10/100
<br>but auto-neg of duplex is a handshake deal and if one<br>side isn't talking your SOL.. Not saying this is you<br>issue but this link explains it pretty well and might<br>track down the issue.<br><br><a href="http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/473/46.html">
