roboRIO mDNS Problem

Installed all software, firmware, imaged, JVM etc. accessing roboRIO internal web server via USB via browser no problems (team 4450). However, using wireless connection, PC browser would not connect using the roboRIO-4450.local mDNS address. Going back to USB I looked at the roboRIO home page and observed that the HostName is roboRIO-4450 as expected but the dns name shown on the home page is roboRIO-4451.local. Now if I switch back to wireless and use roboRIO-4451.local in the browser, it works.

I have no idea how this happened and have not seen any way to change the dns name on the roboRIO web interface to the correct value.

As an addtional issue, I have not been able to get the FRC dashboard app on the driver station to connect, even using 4451 as the team number. Don't know if this is somehow related to the incorrect roboRIO dns name or if this is a different issue. I can browse to the RIO from driverstation PC using roboRIO-4451.local so I would have thought the DS would work setting team to 4451.

Please note I have checked the firewall etc et.
