Now that I'm back at my computer, the MJPEG Loop VI is redundant, but it is not related to sending images to the dashboard. It was once used to keep up with a camera that was streaming MJPGs at a rate faster than your roboRIO was reading them. Without this loop, the images would buffer and there would be lag in the camera processing. The MJPEG Loop is no longer in the palette because its functionality is now built into the other IP and Dash VI. So it is unnecessary, but it sounds like the affect it causes was what was causing you issues.

So the issue you were having was probably caused by the IP address. The next thing I'd look at is the camera settings. If the camera is getting its IP via DHCP, then hard coding the IP in the code is gonna work sometimes, but it is very brittle. It is trying to predict the number given out by your DHCP server and would break as soon as the devices get IPs in a different order or the DHCP server changes.
