Driver Station Freezing

[Jared]

It happened twice today in all of our matches. We never had the failure where we could enable our robot while connected. I've noticed that many other teams are having weird issues with long connection times on the field at NE district champs, and we usually have to restart the driver station and change our team number to another number and back before we can connect to the field.

Restarting the driver station does not stop the driver station from freezing, but if I log out/log in, the driver station will work normally.

We also see an error message when tethering which says "The mDNS service is slow to respond". The same error came up on the old laptop all the time, but we never experienced the freeze.

The laptop that had this issue has no extra software on it at all. It's an hp 350 g1 laptop that is brand new, and I uninstalled skype, evernote, and a DVD player application. I also removed all antivirus software and disabled the firewall. I'll be able to give the msinfo32 data in a few days.

The freeze has only happened after we connect to the robot through the field and when I click on the third tab down on the left (the gear, IIRC).
