Where do I check for the actual uplink speed (10BaseT, 100BaseT, etc)? I thought ifconfig would tell me, but this is all it spits out.

Code:
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:11:11:76:3C:DB
          inet addr:206.222.18.218  Bcast:206.222.18.255  Mask:255.255.255.248
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:781580125 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:658530784 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:424556050 (404.8 Mb)  TX bytes:651292536 (621.1 Mb)


Ideas?
