The Mdns name is roborio-TEAM-frc. You can confirm that by looking at the roborio name in its dashboard. The .local tells the web browser that is a local address. The .lan is appended unto the name by the radio. Sometime one works better than the other. I am not expert enough on what is really going on to have a good explanation why.

The smartdashboard target is set in the smartdashboard. I think under the files menu? I think it generally gets set automatically. Also network table was redone this year. I don't know if last years will work with the 2016 version. So if didn't completely uninstall last years stuff, that might be a problem as well.

If the driver station is finding the roborio, does that prove the Mdsn is working?
