RTL8111/8168B not negotiating 1GB

[Sam Fourman Jr.]

Hello list,

I have a Asus Sabertooth 990FXv2 motherboard,  and a run of the mill
NetGear DGS2205 desktop gig switch

with linux my Ethernet can negotiate at 1GB but with FreeBSD it can not
if I force the device to 1000baseT  with ifconfig it does not work.
