I can select 1000baseT in Network set-up for the iMac, but if so, I can't connect to the AE - gigabit is not an option on the AE and I can only connect if I set the iMac back down to "100baseTX".
'''''BTW - forgot to mention that I bought it used, but ran the serial number and according to the specs on the Apple support pages, it's a gigabit version.'''''
