Dell Venue 11 Pro - trouble with PXE boot

Question

Before buying a lot of these tablets (Venue 11 Pro 7130), I have to ensure they can be deployed from MS Configmgr (2012). So far I have no luck getting our test model to PXE boot. Following the instructions documented by Dell here: http://www.dell.com/support/article/br/pt/brdhs1/SLN292679/pt I have a USB to Ethernet Lenovo dongle based on the AX88772B chipset...which is supported according to the documentation. However, trying to PXE boot, the screen hangs on the message:  checking media presence... start pxe over ipv4 It then moves to ipv6, and then boots on the hard drive. BIOS version is A14. Any help would be appreciated!

Seems DHCP handles UEFI devices differently...
