DHCP Failure

That is great!
Which may indicate a poor solder connection on the Ethernet controller, or associated components. 
Good Job!

Yeah, thanks!
Once I began thinking about the IC I also thought that there might be an issue regarding soldering and it might be worth it to throw the whole thing into the freezer. On the other hand I clearly recall checking each point with the magnifying glass.

I do expect the issue to return at some point. At least this time I know where to look for the issue.
But for the moment: if it ain't broke don't fix it

Thanks Cutty and Steph for all the support and help!
