If you use mediaopt on your client you will need to also hardcode the settings 
on the arrowpoint or you may end up in trouble there with the negotiation, 
and also if you only set the speed and not the duplex hardcoded you will have 
troubles as well.

your options are, hardcode neither speed nor duplex, or hardcode both speed 
and duplex, you seem to have a mix of both and that is never a good idea.
