Re: [Help] Can ping, but DS says "No Robot Communication" only W7, ok from XP

Ooh, ooh, I know...

The Diagnostics page LEDs in that column mostly refer to ping results. The No Robot Communication message, and the light on the left permanent panel labeled Communications are much more of a summary and indicate whether the protocol is succeeding.

My guess is that the cRIO is not running the FRC Communications task and is not responding to control packets. Image the cRIO. You can verify this further if needed by using netconsole or the serial cable to view the console trace. You could also identify if that task is running or not. But since most folks don't have a null-modem serial cable laying around, I'd reimage and see if the issue is resolved. Be sure to click the format checkbox in the imaging tool.
