Hi Frank,
Thanks for your advice.
You're right. I missed this important step.
On VM edit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
changing the line;
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*",
ATTR{address}=="08:00:27:ba:ae:16", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1",
KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth1"
as;
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*",
ATTR{address}=="08:00:27:ba:ae:16", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1",
KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"
"eth1" to "eth0"
Reboot VM, all problem gone now.
During cloning, VBoxManage assigned Name="eth1" in the cloned VM because the
original VM already taking up Name="eth0" on its MAC address.
I made lot of VM cloning. Recently only on Windows therefore I forgot this
important step. I have been wondering a step missed but unable to recall.
Lot of thanks for your advice.
In my case only 70-persistent-net.rules without
75-persistent-net-generator.rules
$ sudo ls /etc/udev/rules.d/
60-vboxadd.rules 70-persistent-cd.rules 70-persistent-net.rules
70-xorg-vboxmouse.rules README

You missed one step:
$ sudo rm /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
$ sudo rm /lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules
Then reboot your guest.
After you cloned the VM, the MAC address of the VM changed and udev
reserved eth0 for the old MAC address.
Kind regards,
Frank
