I'd be interested to know if this condition persisted and whether there actually was communication. My uneducated guess (I don't know the details) is that it could ping the cRIO, but that full communication had not started yet.
That sounds reasonable to me. It could be a misconfiguration in the network settings between the cRIO and the driver station. The diagnostics tab is able to reach the cRIO via IP, but the status link is not getting a response from the TCP layer. Remember that a machine can be almost totally braindead and still respond to pings.

But I'm still rather new to networking.
