Re: Can connect to the roboRIO by IP but not by hostname

We switched to static, but we ran into an issue at Greater Toronto East Regional where we were not able to connect to our rio after the configuring the radio. This involved switching from Static to DHCP, which made it so our rio did not have a valid IP at all, so to get an IP we would need to connect it to a DNS server, the only one being the field. Which asks another question: Do teams that are using co-processors connected to the radio, have to also undergo this process if they were static before?

Thank you.
