I have a real Arduino.org Uno R3 and an Ethernet shield V1.1. I have them jumpered togehter not piggy-back.

4 -> 4
10 -> 10
11 - > 11
12 -> 12

5v -> 5v

My router is on DHCP

I used Arduio IDE 1.6.1.1 to load Example / Ethernet / DhcpAddressPrinter.

I don't know the real mac address so I used the one in the sketch.

Loads fine and the network cable looks active but I get

server is at 0.0.0.0

I see no new leases on the router in the DHCP log. Am I having a driver issue?

Update. I checked the chipset, C28j60. I had to switch to the library that supports it, EtherCard. Apparently this shield is old.
Got it working although EtherCard samples are getting harder to come by.
