ethernet locks up in Ethernet.begin

Using Arduino Networking, Protocols, and Devices

The code is just the DHCPAddressPrinter example. I did try and breakdown some of the .begin function using this

#include <SPI.h>
#include <IPAddress.h>
#include <Dhcp.h>
#include "C:/Program Files (x86)/Arduino/libraries/Ethernet/src/utility/w5100.h"

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

// W5100 controller instance
//W5100Class W5100;

#define TX_RX_MAX_BUF_SIZE 2048
#define TX_BUF 0x1100
#define RX_BUF (TX_BUF + TX_RX_MAX_BUF_SIZE)

#define TXBUF_BASE 0x4000
#define RXBUF_BASE 0x6000


byte mac[] = {
  0x00, 0xAA, 0xBB, 0xCC, 0xDE, 0x02
};

byte ip[] = {
  0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
};
DhcpClass *_dhcp;

void setup() {

  static DhcpClass s_dhcp;
  _dhcp = &s_dhcp;

  
  Serial.begin(9600);
 
  while (!Serial) {
  }

  // start the Ethernet connection:
  Serial.println("1");
    W5100.init();
  Serial.println("2");
  SPI.beginTransaction(SPI_ETHERNET_SETTINGS);
  Serial.println("3");

  W5100.setMACAddress(mac);
  Serial.println("4");

  W5100.setIPAddress(ip);
  SPI.endTransaction();
  Serial.println("5");

  int ret = _dhcp->beginWithDHCP(mac, 10, 40);
  Serial.println("6");
}

void loop() {

}

That hangs on int ret = _dhcp->beginWithDHCP(mac, 10, 40); after printing "5"

No additional hardware on the SPI port
