That usually means the communication between the laptop and robot is flakey. It's slowed way down.

I saw this on one team still using last year's Classmate setup (with updated 2011 Driver Station).
The Classmate turned out to be "stuttering." They had too much going on on their laptop and it couldn't keep up with the robot.
That can be double checked by trying a different laptop running the Driver Station application.

It can also occur due to a weak or subpar wireless connection.
Does it still give these errors when you connect your laptop directly to the DLink on the robot via Ethernet cable?

I can't see images from Imageshack, so I can't give advice there.
