I've experienced three or four delays on the field from our team so far, all of which were caused by issues with mDNS.

The laptop will say "FMS Connected, correct station", and our robot will show up as connected with the battery voltage and everything, but the field people cannot see that our laptop is connected. We must disable/enable the network adapter, restart the driver station software, and sometimes even restart the robot.

I've also noticed similar things happening to our alliance partners, where their laptops don't connect to the field, and they have to restart things or try connecting and disconnecting again and again to connect to the field.

The field seems to always connect to the robots in the end, but this year, it seems to take longer on average for all teams to get full communications.
