Can connect to the roboRIO by IP but not by hostname

[Tom Line]

I know this is slightly off topic, but since someone mentioned windows 10....

Be very aware of windows 10 and all the helpful features microsoft has created. For instance our driver station laptop managed to download an update while in the competition venue and rebooted and installed it - without our giving permission. This wouldn't have been such a problem if we weren't trying to USE IT with the robot to, you know.... drive.

It also re-enabled the firewall during the update, causing us 20 minutes of "why can't we connect to the robot" afterwards.

Windows 10 has a fantastic feature where it doesn't even have to connect to the internet to download updates. As long as another windows machine has it on the network you are connected to it will utilize a peer to peer system to grab the update.
