DHCP issue with ESP32 causes panic

We're working on an IoT project, our previous developer left us and now we're stuck with some code we can't get to work properly. Anyway, the device sets up the access point, but once we try to connect it keeps resetting. Looking at the output in the serial monitor, we get the following:

And it keeps looping until we stop trying to connect. I decoded the exception to:

PC: 0x00000000
EXCVADDR: 0x00000000

Does that make sense to anyone? I'm not a developer, I can just read code somewhat, but am trying my best to help until we get a new developer on board :) Any help about the next possible steps in debugging this out will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
