Ah interesting:
on my pc,
  # mii-tool
SIOCGMIIPHY on 'eth0' failed: Operation not supported
eth1: 10 Mbit, half duplex, no link

and eth1 is the nic I use to connect my c110 :) (don't see what no link 
means but that is the right setup that I need with c110)

otc on the c110:
# mii-tool
SIOCGMIIPHY on 'eth0' failed: Operation not supported
no MII interfaces found
:(

Thx a lot,
