That should mean it's in 10mb mode rather than 100mb I think, check whether the cable is good?

It'll also show as that for most PCs in standby these days, they go to 10mb to save power while off since they'd only be listening for wake on lan packets.

Have you got something hooked up to LAN1? If so it might be that device. It may only have a 10Mb/s network port in it, or (if its a PC/laptop) the driver needs updating or reinstalling.
