You found one of the devices that I do not have access to and did not 
test, thanks. We do expect to run the port at 2GBits/sec on these 
devices however there is no "official" way to advertise that a port can 
run at 2Gbits/sec, as this is not even a "sanctioned" speed. I do have a 
similar device however, so let me run some more tests, we won't see a 
regression however since we do not use the NATP accelerator which would 
be the reason to run the port at 2Gbits/sec.
