If you look at one of the diagrams earlier in Chapter 5, it shows the setup of the devices with the IP addresses, and the PC IP Address is supposed to be 10.xx.yy.6, not 10.xx.yy.1. Once we did that, it worked just fine, as far as I know (I got a call once it was working).

Good luck
This and other noted documentation errors here and there underscore the need for FIRST to release typo-corrected documentation on their site ASAP. Even the most basic typo can lead to hours of delay and frustration for teams who are already on a compressed learning schedule as it is.
