Severe RobboRIO Error

We are unable to communicate with the RoboRIO from the FRC Driver Station or the Eclipse plugin.

We have the RoboRIO connected wirelessly, but we have also tried connecting with the RIO using USB & Ethernet.

When we deploy the code, we get a build failed message in the log, and in the driver station, the communications light is off. The communications light on the RIO is also red.

However, momentarily the RIO comm light loses color thus showing it should be in working condition, the code is still not received, our code is perfectly fine and has been tested multiple times before the error. In fact, our code has succeeded and yet still not been received throughout the driver station.

While researching this problem we found one "solution", where we would make the RIOs IP address static and use that static address as the team number in the Driver Station. This seemed to keep the comm light off on the RIO, but the Driver Station still showed that we were not connected and we still could not deploy from Eclipse.

We have also tried using another RoboRIO, which had the software freshly flashed. That RIO went through the same exact problems.

This problem has been reoccurring for slightly more than a month.

All help is welcome.
