Ethernet 2 for our unity shows up as `1000 base T. This is my edit mac pro. Now both the edit mac pro and my mbp are fed from the same ethernet switch that is 1000baseT gigabit and my mbp shows 1000 baseT. I even tried swapping the ethernet cables between the two at the switch and mbp is still 1000baseT and mac pro 100baseT. I also took the switch out of the loop but no change. If I manually set ethernet 1 to 1000baseT as opposed to automatic the connection seems to be broken. Very strange. Anybody got any ideas?
