Doing a Google search on "eth1: New link status: Connected (0001)" yields about 58,000 results. I looked through a few but did not find a solution. I did find one user who said it was frustrating because he did not have the problem with the previous version of ubuntu (he did not say which one). Since yours was a new installation, you might want to try an older ubuntu first just to try eliminating hardware as the cause. Let me know if you need a CD for that.
