The problem I found is as follows: at work I use Fedora 10

Why are you using F10? This is well out of support and if it's just a case that the hardware is too new for the kernel there is no assistance that that can be provided.
 

and as a controller LAN has, as you can see, the Atheros AR8151 chip (10/100/1000 Mbit).

It would seem likely that F10 back in 2009 did not support this.
 
Unfortunately I am forced to not being able to upgrade the operating system to the new Fedora 19.

Why not? You are currently running an OS that is so far out of date it's not even funny... 

I also tried to live to start both Fedora 19 and Ubuntu 13.04 and the LAN is working properly. So I think it is intended solely as a driver problem.

I thought you couldn't run F19 on your system? This would indeed indicate a driver as opposed to hardware problem - the correct solution of course would be to then upgrade. If you cannot run current Fedora for some reason I woudl suggest trying your setup with a long term support distribution such as CentOS 6 to ensure that you get security updates on a stable base.
