Have you tried the basic stuff? Like can you ping your M1001? And I assume you have it hard wired. Do you have other 10/100 devices on the network and can you talk to them? Do you have other gigabit divices on the network? Should the M1001 be able to see the internet, and does it? I have fedora 10 on my laptop and it has gigabit ethernet, and it works with firefly. But nothing else on the network is gigabit, so maybe that’s why it works.
