Smart Dashboard not connecting to robot (Python)

[virtuald]

Another thing you can try is compile a very simple C++ or Java program and install that on the roborio and see if it works. I would be very surprised if it did, but you never know.

Using the log from the Smart Dashboard, I was able to see that it was trying to connect to 10.32.99.2, when the roboRio's IP was actually 10.32.99.61. I logged into the router and changed the default assignment, and it works now!

Thanks for your help!

You didn't have the "use mDNS" checkbox checked. You should either set the roboRIO to a static IP of 10.32.99.2 from the roboRIO webdashboard (make sure to set your DS static too to work at the event: http://wpilib.screenstepslive.com/s/...g-at-the-event) or check the "use mDNS" checkbox in the properties otherwise it won't work at the event where the assignment you made in the router isn't there.
