Realtek Network Adapter Comes Up as Intel I219 From Old Motherboard

I have a Windows install that I've been using for awhile even through hardware swaps, and I just noticed tonight that my latest motherboard's Realtek network adapter is coming up as my old motherboard's Intel I219-V NIC. Pic:


Any ideas?

Try to Reset Preferences or click F2 over the sensor heading to check for renamed sensor.

Easy solution. Rename menu showed a mismatch and it was simple as clicking Set Original. I'm guessing in the code, Ethernet # device gets an initial entry, then if hardware is swapped and the new adapter occupies the same "slot" internally, it maintains the same given name.
