1.) One Gentoo PC (that is about 20-30meters away from the switch) negotiated 
the speed of only 100 despite being capable of doing 1000.
I'll have to buy a new switch and make a new CAT5e cable to test it.
But but it will take some time.

2.) The two Gentoo PC that are meters away from the switch are my concern firs.
One is a server, another small PC run 24/7 and both negotiated speed of 1000 
with the switch.

I have to re-test the transfer speed between these to boxes first, and check to 
light on the switch if it is green and/or orange

I'll test the above for errors tomorrow.
