SmartDashBoard Issues

[TFleig78]

For the past few days, we've been having issues getting SmartDashboard working consistently . We're connecting over WiFi to the robot on the same computer that we're running Eclipse on. SDB seems to work for a while and we are able to read sensor values and run commands using the dashboard. Then, without changing the code, Smartdashboard seems to no longer connect to the robot even though the driver station is working. Sensor values don't update and we aren't able to start commands. Has anyone ever had this issue?

Try SFX (http://wpilib.screenstepslive.com/s/3120/m/7932/l/163009-the-new-smartdashboard-sfx), our programmers had trouble with the traditional Smart Dashboard, something to do with school computer networking restrictions. From the little that I understand about it, it bypasses the networking issues that we had, and runs Smart Dashboard on your computer's hard drive.
Hope this helps!
