Apple built-in ethernet

I have a quick question regarding built-in ethernet on beige G3 Powermacs
and earlier.   I know that all of these machines have 10baseT ethernet
accessable by either the built-in RJ11 or AAUI ports.   My question is
whether or not these 10baseT ethernet connections support full duplex or are
they limited to half duplex.

Thanks in advance,

William

Can't speak for those specifically, but the 604 based machines that were
replaced by the G3s did full so I'd be stunned if the G3s didn't.

My Wallstreet G3/300 does only half-duplex ethernet.

William-

I have a Beige G3-266 Mhz MiniTower, as well as an old LC III with an
Ethernet card.  How can I tell whether they are full or half duplex?

If you're running OS X, the Network control panel has a page where you
can manually configure bit-rate and duplex (for those situations when
auto-config fails).  I assume the panel is smart enough to not show you
option that your hardware can't support.
