Auto-MDI is part of gigabit spec, so as long as one of the two devices on a link is gigabit-capable, its port should be able to auto-switch. The only real reasons for maintaining A or B throughout is for legacy equipment, and just for consistency (or to satisfy OCD).

If you're getting a link and a working connection, but a very slow connection, I'd expect to find maybe one data pair reversed, or one data wire off (10/100 Fast Ethernet uses the green and orange pairs in T-568 wiring). If you're punching down a 110 jack with a knife, I'd say there's a good chance one wire isn't making the proper connection.
