any idea why your eth1 is named dev707 ?
Is their any problem to use this name  ?

You could try to add this line to /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*",
ATTR{address}=="00:1C:23:D8:78:BD", ATTR{type}=="1", NAME="eth1"

This is what I use to give different pcmcia card the same name "wlan0"
on all my laptop.
