I'm also concerned about what happens when we go to competition, if this issue will be present under field control...

The DS automatically assigns a static IP to the laptop based on the team number you enter. I believe it uses 10.xx.yy.5 for the wired and 10.xx.yy.6 for the wireless, but I may have those two backward. Either way, you may only need to assign an IP to the RoboRio.

I'm not the programming mentor this year, so I have not spent a lot of time with the system. So, my understanding may be a bit off with the new system, but this is my understanding of how they work this year.
