this gives lots of things worth looking at them :

- are you running on a custom board, i.e. is MDIO known to work properly
-> PHY adressing ?
- Does your chips require different clocks for 100M/1000M ?
- What about mis-strapped link advertisement of the PHY ? Maybe 100M-FD
disabled ?

Have you tried mii diagnostics ?
Have a look at common/cmd_mii.c -> "mii info" and "mii dump" should be
your friends.
