I believe that if you fiddle with the laptop networking enough, it will connect without requiring a reboot. Specifically, when Windows decides it needs to update the multicast group, the mDNS call will suddenly find the device that was connected the whole time. I was never able to find a way to flush or rebuild that info.
Other than a full PC reboot, disabling and re-enabling the network adapter consistently resolves the problem whenever I see it. Presumably that forces the multicast group update.

I've not been able to resolve the problem just using "ipconfig /flushdns"

Hope this helps!

EDIT: sorry, neglected to also mention that when I've seen the problem, other networking apps all work fine....I'm able to ping roborio-XXXX-frc from the command line, able to ssh into it with PuTTY, etc
