Trouble resolving mDNS via Wi-fi on Windows 7 VM
I'm having trouble getting the mDNS for the roboRIO to resolve on our team's DS over wireless. I've installed the NI FRC 2015 update, configured our bridge using the 2015 Bridge Configuration Utility, flashed the roboRIO and installed Java 8, and successfully deployed code and enabled the robot over a wired connection. Our DS is a Windows 7 VM running on VMware Fusion bridging the wifi connection.

Our D-LINk is in 5 GHz AP mode, and I can lookup the mDNS on the Mac, but the lookup fails on the Windows 7 side on wi-fi (but not a wired connection). However, I am able to ping the corresponding IP and connect to the web dashboard for the roboRIO. I have checked that the NI mDNS responder is installed and has properly enabled firewall exceptions, so I'm not too sure what the problem is.

Anyone have any suggestions?
