Re: Can connect to the roboRIO by IP but not by hostname
We also have a raspberry pi attached to the radio, which has the static IP 10.54.28.13. And I can't ping or connect to it by its hostname either, although I can connect via IP. The rPi is running an avahi-daemon, so I can connect to it from other laptops by hostname.

Interestingly enough, I can ssh into the raspberry pi via IP and once inside the pi, I can ping and connect to the rio via hostname.
