    I'm also looking into a replacement for AttansicL1Ethernet, but that seems to be all there is for your old ethernet controller. For what it's worth, the official source for that is here: https://code.google.com/archive/p/iats/downloads Maybe ALXEthernet would work better?

    I would at least look around to see if your card needs any specific support, or ask someone who has more knowledge on Kepler (600 Series) hackintoshes other than me, but according to Dortainia, you'll need Lilu.kext & WhateverGreen.kext as well as a shikigva=40 boot flag.

    Check out this page for your Lilu.kext and this page for your WhateverGreen.kext. When using WG, try using the boot arguments shikigva=40 which will set your boardID as an iMac14,2 which helps with some nVidia Support. If that doesn't help, maybe use agdpmod=vit9696 which skips the boardID check altogether which has been known to fix black screens. Installing WhateverGreen, in general, will most likely solve your issue though.
