No, I'm pretty sure it has an application on it just fine, and the Driver Station displays "no comms" not "no code".

Both ethernet ports are experiencing the same problem. The team number was set properly, and we tried changing it to a different number and changing it back. Thanks for trying to help, though.
Does anyone else have any other possible suggestions?
