Re: CRIO Wireless network issues

We are still working on getting ours to talk, but here's what I understand so far. Anyone please correct me if I'm wrong.

The small black gaming adapter on the robot from last year goes away.
The Linksys router on the drivers's station, that was connected to the Classmate goes away.

The D-link access point / bridge (DAP-1522) is used in the robot, the classmate connects wirelessly to it. The switch should be in "Bridge" mode for competition, and "AP (access point) for programming. Follow the instructions in the control system docs for setting it up.

The development laptop needs to have its wireless address set to an address like 10.x.y.50, or turn on DHCP in the d-link to start handing out addresses starting at 10.x.y.10. So it stays above the addresses use for the CRIO, d-link, and classmate.

We are working on getting Windriver workbench to see the CRIO. It still won't see it, even tethered. The laptop can ping it. Anyone have any helpful ideas on that?
