Ubuntu 22.04 server, Intel x550, advertised speed not correct

$

The network card Intel X550T installed on an Ubuntu server 22.04 does not advertise all the available speeds, therefore (if that is the reason) the auto-negotiation fails to connect to the speed available (the source is a 2.5GB connection):

Supported link modes:   100baseT/Full                        1000baseT/Full                        10000baseT/Full                        2500baseT/Full                        5000baseT/FullSupported pause frame use: SymmetricSupports auto-negotiation: YesSupported FEC modes: Not reportedAdvertised link modes:  100baseT/Full                        1000baseT/Full                        10000baseT/FullAdvertised pause frame use: SymmetricAdvertised auto-negotiation: YesAdvertised FEC modes: Not reportedSpeed: 1000Mb/sDuplex: FullAuto-negotiation: on

What should I do, after looking for solutions it seems to be a driver issue, but on the other hand it seems that the kernel in Ubuntu 22.04 should fully support this card ?

Edit:Following @waltinator suggestions, I modified the speed of the card by running:

sudo ethtool -s <name_of_card> speed 2500

The command above raises the speed to 2.5GB as expected.However, I could not turn off the auto-negotiation (which seems recommended from @waltinator comment); if I run the command:

 sudo ethtool -s <name_of_card> autoneg off speed 2500 duplex full

or:

sudo ethtool -s <name_of_card> autoneg off speed 2500

or:

sudo ethtool -s <name_of_card> autoneg off

there is no error but no effect, speed and auto-negotiation are not changed.

Edit 2:After some testing, changing the link mode with the command above leads to random disconnections.Maybe turning auto-negotiation off would solve this, but trying to turn off auto-negotiation on the card has no effect (I suppose the auto-negotiation parameter cannot be turned off on the card if the switch requires auto-negotiation, and I am not allowed to change that on the switch).
