If not, you will have connection issues. My corporate issued laptop does not allow the Windows firewall to be disabled, causing me to have to reboot before every match at the Southfield district event and add to field delays (sorry teams).

On Saturday I brought in another laptop with the Windows firewall disabled and had no FMS connection issues.

I am sorry - I was not clear enough. Our Driver Station Laptop is connecting to the field just fine...this was a laptop to push the program, and it wasn't connecting (via USB cable) to the RoboRIO. My questions are all about quick program build speed and quick push to the RoboRIO. We're making multiple small tweaks to the program, and each one has a 5 to 10 minute build, then a long deploy as well. It makes dialing in an auto distance or other small movement really tedious.
