Re: Code Problems

We have completely rewired our robot and it will turn on and thats as far as it will go. I need help with the ethernet cable wiring. The situation is as follows:

When we connect an ethernet cable from the laptop to the wireless router, and another one from the bridge to the cRIO, we recieve no robot communication but the ethernet and radio signals on the driver station are both green and the light on the 1st ethernet slot on the cRIO is lit up.

However, when we tether the ethernet cable, (directly from the laptop to the cRIO) we get the same green radio and ethernet signals but the light on the cRIO slot does not light up.

That probably didn't make sense so i've put together some diagrams that might make a little more sense, they are attached.


This probably isn't really clear but if you have any quesions please ask thank you. I am confused and my coach is not that familiar with the wiring on our robot. Any help would be great.
