TM4C1294NCPDT: Ethernet Communication

Part Number: TM4C1294NCPDT
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: EK-TM4C1294XL

I am attempting to implement Ethernet communication on the TM4C129NCPDT on a custom board. I have successfully written code for Ethernet and telnet on the EK-TM4C1294XL, however the custom board seems to have an issue either in the layout or connection that is preventing the micro-controller from getting an IP address from DHCP or responding to ping requests with a static IP. The debug information from the UART port is,

The micro-controller section of the PCB looks like this,

In the PCB drawing you may notice the Ethernet connector is rotated 180 degrees the wrong way(oops). It was rotated correctly so I could get an Ethernet cable into it, and make the electrical connection correct.

Please let me know if you need more information.

Thanks,
