Re: CAN and Jaguars, any limits?
We had a similar issue around 7 Jaguars on our practice robot before we realized we had a "bad" termination resistor. We swapped it out, after much other troubleshooting, and it resolved the issue. I can't explain the failure, but I'm sure changing the termination resistor is what fixed it. Typically, no termination results in only 1 Jaguar showing up on the CAN.

I put "bad" in quotes above because we were able to use the "bad" termination resistor on a different CAN bus with 2 Jaguars without issue.

You might give it a try; it's easy enough.
