extract from forcedeth.c

... snipped
{ /* MCP51 Ethernet Controller */
PCI_DEVICE(0x10DE, 0x0269),
.driver_data = DEV_NEED_LINKTIMER|DEV_HAS_HIGH_DMA|DEV_HAS_POWER_CNTRL|DEV_HAS_STATISTICS_V1|DEV_NEED_LOW_POWER_FIX,
},
... snaipped

So looks like the kmod-forcedeth driver is required...
Nick probably has the driver on his web-site - but it is also here at...
kmod-forcedeth-0.64-3.el7_5.elrepo
for ClearOS 7.5 only (built with kernel 3.10.0-862.11.6.v7.x86_64)

    Yes, that is the one. Also confirmed by looking it up on ElRepo's site. Please make sure your system in on ClearOS 7.5 to use it. Also, the way things seem to be going with EL7, every kernel coming out with a point release of the OS requires an updated driver. Keep an eye out on my site where I try to maintain the up-to-date ones.

    Sorry, but I don't recognise the first controller properly. Please can you do an extended:
    lspci -knn
    I am only after the output for the "Nvidia corp MCP51 Ethernet controller" section.

    For the other NIC, it will work better with alternative drivers:
    yum install kmod-r816*
    Then reboot.
