DHCP timeout on reboot

just to be sure running dhcp multiple times makes no difference right?

Yes, it doesn't matter ho many times I run the dhcp command. The result is always the same.

Windows or Linux. But it doesn't make a difference. Also reboot from iPXE shows the same behaviour.

Code:

PCI_ROM ( 0x8086, 0x1559, "i218v", "I218-V", INTEL_NO_PHY_RST ),

I'll try that on the weekend and report back.

Thanks a lot for your help!
