New laptop not connecting to Roborio

[prasvpatel]

We have a new laptop, but it is not connecting to the RoboRio. Any ideas?

Firewall?

Have you tried tethering?

Have you connected other laptops?

[prasvpatel]

we have one other laptop connected but its a shitty one so we are using this new one

How are you trying to connect? WiFi, or tethered?

Can you see/connect to the D-Link?

[prasvpatel]

yeh through wifi but not working and it says connected to the bridge and not connected to the robot

Connect via USB. Can you access the roborio web interface that way? Is the roborio getting an ip address from the router? Can you ping that IP address when connected to the router? Can you ping it using RoboRio####.local, where #### is your team number? Where exactly this fails would determine what you need to do.

Did you get that laptop to work with the roboRio?

Wifi or Tethered?

Check your TCP/IP settings. In the past, you were on your own subnet (10.xx.yy.nn), where xx and yy were your team numbers. That seems to have changed this year.

Try direct connecting into the roboRio.
