I've been around four years now, and I'm the programming mentor Mike referred to.

Wifi+TCP/IP seems like a really good idea.

MDNS?......I'm not so sure. It just seems like ever since we went to that, an awful lot of laptops don't "just work" anymore. My connection wasn't working after reinstalling the 2017 suite, although the symptoms weren't exactly the same as Mike's. He suggested I turn off IPV6, and suddenly it started working. He said he had read it in a Chief Delphi post at some point.

I have absolutely no clue why it would have made a difference, but it did.
