Need to reboot driver station PC to ping mDNS alias

[dpotteiger]

We have encountered a strange issue where we find that we must reboot the Driver Station computer (running Windows) in order to connect to the Rio. This is something we found necessary whenever we cycled power on the RIO. We noticed that we are unable to ping the mDNS alias if we do not do so. We tried last year's radio and did not have this issue. We also tried other computers and did not have this issue. We suspect that the driver station computer is running last year's version of the mDNS responder. Documentation indicates that there were "tweaks" to the 2016 mDNS responder. Does anyone know further about the tweaks other than the mDNS alias contains a -FRC.local?
