Gigabit LAN

The PS3 has 1 Gigabit Ethernet port. The port accepts Auto-MDIX (automatic medium-dependent interface crossover), so no need for special crosscables when hooking up the PS3 direct to the PC.

Gigabit LAN chips used

A sample of the GbLAN chips in different PS3 models:

Jumbo frames

From Linux perspective (under OtherOS <=3.15), the old drivers set the MTU to 2308, while newer versions set the MTU of 1518. This could be a hypervisor restriction (needs research).
