Thanks for the quick response my original post follows.

The answer is that the TP interface on the Ultra is autosensing and can
work for both 100Mbps and 10BaseT networks.

Hello.

We recently purchased an Ultra 1 w/ Creator 3D and are currently
networking via our MII port to an AUI adapter purchased from Sun.
Actually the MII is transceived to AUI then to BNC. My question... Is
the TP interface 100Mbps or 10Mbps? We plan to switch to 100MBps 'cause
our 10 MBps isn't cutting it. I've read the documentation and
it's rather confusing. Also we don't have a hardware contract with Sun.
Thanks in advance.
