There is one systemic problem that can cause one category of connection issues. It is known, understood, and fixable -- but the fix involves releasing a new version of the Driver Station application and modifying to the default Dashboard project. Working around that problem is simple enough that it's probably not going to get fixed in this season's code.

The true "quirks" are most likely due to background tasks running on a team's Driver Station computer. FIRST can't do anything about that. It's up to the teams to clean up their computers' configuration, turning off antivirus scanners and firewalls and software updaters and streaming music clients and Skype and everything that isn't part of the FRC software.
