System Workbench for STM32

I have just started experimenting with ST products. I have a STM32F4 Discovery board. I bought a DP83848 PHY on Ebay and connected it to the Discovery board. I downloaded a hex file from here:http://blog.tkjelectronics.dk/2012/08/ethernet-on-stm32f4discovery-using-external-phy/

I am able to ping the board and access the web page with no issues.

I then used CubeMX to create a project with nothing but LWIP and two GPIO pins. I figured I would start out simple. The goal was to see if I could get LWIP working. I generated the code and imported it into System Workbench and used STLink to program the board.

I cannot ping the board (I enabled ICMP in CubeMX) and it does not make a DHCP request. I know the request is not being made because Wireshark never sees it.

Do I have to put anything in the main() while loop for lwip to work? Do I need to make any modifications to use the DP83848? I noticed in CubeMX that in the Ethernet Settings, it states LAN8742A for the PHY. Maybe this is my issue? If so, how would I tell CubeMX to use the DP83848?

I have been working on this for two days and making zero progress.
