Gigabit is fussy about cables. Are you sure that your cabling is up to
the standard? (cable quality, length of run, no kinks, proper
terminations, and so on)

I went through this when I upgraded my home to gigabit.

Exactly the same cable is going to eth1, which is running at Gbit
speed, and the same cable was running eth0 at Gbit speed beforehand.

I will test using some different cables today.

Try logically eliminating possibilities.
