Disabling auto negotiation along with limiting ethernet PHY to 100MBit is a part of requirements for a custom solution.
This does not actually answer my question. What I'm interested to understand is _why_ you want to do that. As mentioned before, autonegotiation is usually a good thing to have, and mandatory in many cases. If you disable it, you probably want to work around some problem (eventually caused by broken or mis-designed hardware), and depending on the nature of the problem there might be better ways to solve it.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
