Re: Can connect to the roboRIO by IP but not by hostname
We had a almost 2 hours FTA visit at Waterford Thursday night. Not happy, could not get through inspection because our drivers station would not connect with robot, to power the pneumatic tests. Many, Many things were checked and tested, and after the roborio was reflashed and re firmwared and reloaded something clicked and it started working. Arron the FTA is excellent, and very knowledgeable, have worked with him in the past, and always a pleasure.

I have been posting our issues with this for months now, we were a beta test team. There is something still a miss, somewhere.

I can plug in last years dlink, and everything works, and quick.

The one thing I did learn this weekend, is the new system needs IPv6 enabled. We always turned that off in the past. Maybe it will help someone.
