Is it a pre-manufactured CAT5e cable, or something you ran, and
terminated with jacks on each end? Did you crimp the ends on
yourself? Does the computer have a gigabit NIC?

At least with my Linksys gigabit router, the switch and computer will
try for around 10-15 seconds to establish a gig connection, then falls
back to 100mbps. If you don't wait long enough you won't see the
connection come up.

If you get only 3 out of the 4 from the orange and green pairs, you can
sometimes hold a 10mbps connection.
If you get the orange and green pairs working, you can hold a 100mbps
connection
Only if all 8 work will you get a gigabit connection.

When installing my gigabit router for the first time, I swore there was
a problem with my cat5 wiring. Could not seem to establish GigE on two
stations. Finally found the brown pair broken near where the sheath
was stripped back. Never was a problem for 100mbps, since it doesn't
use brown or blue.
