We are seeing an ongoing problem with the 2015 control system. If we are connected to the roboRIO and all is working, and we then power off the robot, when we power back on, the driver station does not automatically reconnect when the robot is back online. This does not happen every time but often enough to make us very uncomfortable. When we fail to reconnect, if we exit the DS back to Windows, we see that Windows is connected to the robot router. If we then restart the DS, it will fail to connect. The work around we are using is to return to Windows, disconnect then reconnect to the router and then restart the DS. After doing this, the DS connects as expected.

In the 2014 iteration of DS and control system, we had no problems with reconnection after power cycle of robot. I don't know how the DS detects the return of the robot after a power cycle but however thats done it seems to not be working nearly as well as last year. I am wondering if the switch to mDNS has something to do with this.
