You need to use a configured DLink between the laptop and the roboRIO for it to operate properly this year. We don't connect directly to the roboRIO with Ethernet anymore, we use USB if we want to connect directly.
Ok, thanks for the information. I thought that USB vs. Ethernet was optional. I will try the new tool and let you know.
