Issue with WAN speed negotiation after upgrading from 2.7 to 2.8 or 2.8.1

Hi,As mentioned, our ISP router is a fiber optic router and has a fixed configuration.
We have always configured our firewall to match the router, namely 100BaseTX full-duplex. This had been working perfectly for more than ten years, up until pfSense version 2.8.0.Kind regards

What I understand is that, as of today, pfSense 2.8 no longer allows fixing the mediaopt configuration.
Do you think this will be corrected? Does the pfSense Plus version fix this bug? -
The commit that reverted that patch is in 25.11-dev snapshots in Plus. But 25.07.1 is the same base as 2.8.1. I'm still looking at what we can do here. I'm sure it affects more users than just you.

Thank you for your help so far. I will wait for your feedback to see if there is a solution.
Perhaps I will simply downgrade to version 2.7.2 for the time being in order to keep my installations operational.
