Question FRC Radio Configuration 2017

We were able to load the new firmware to this years radio, and get it to configure correctly. The network would not appear however, and the wireless light never comes on. We also attempted to connect in wired bridge mode to no avail. Any ideas as to how to make it work?

Re: FRC Radio Configuration 2017

We had issues with this as well. What worked for us was putting something in the (optional) Robot Name blank.

Re: FRC Radio Configuration 2017

There's also an updated version of the Radio Configuration tool has been released that fixes this: https://usfirst.collab.net/sf/frs/do/viewRelease/projects.wpilib/frs.frc_radio_configuration_utility.frc_radio_conf iguration_utilit_2

Re: FRC Radio Configuration 2017

We're getting a similar problem. We updated firmware and configured the radio, but connecting to upload code or connect to the dashboard doesn't work. We can connect to the network through the laptop but we can't actually interact with the robot. Seems like the radio isn't communicating with the RIO.

Re: FRC Radio Configuration 2017

Hi, I'm having trouble loading the firmware to the radio. I'm following the instructions of this manual: http://files.andymark.com/OM5P-AN_QuickAP_Setup.pdf
It doesn't connect when it displays "Listening on interface"
Any suggestions?

Don't use those directions.
Use the FRC Radio Configuration Tool found at: https://usfirst.collab.net/sf/frs/do...ration_utility

And follow the directions at: Programming your radio for home use

Cool Re: FRC Radio Configuration 2017

We just recently had the same problem. What we did was download the radio configuration utility on to a another computer (We used a desktop) and it worked like a charm.
You could try doing that and hopefully it helps. I'm thinking it might be a windows10 driver issue because the laptop we were using was windows10 and that would not work. When it connected it to the desktop (running windows 7) it worked on the first try.
I contacted John Novak about the problem and his reply is as follows, "it happened to several at our workshop last week. my assessment right now is to try different computers. USB to Ethernet adapters failed and laptops need the WIFI totally disabled at the adapter level. even when I got it to work it took multiple tries. A desktop may be more likely to work"

Re: FRC Radio Configuration 2017

We have also had issues running the configuration utility on laptops that have multiple ethernet adapters. We got it working by installing the configuration tool on a classmate drivers station.

(it seems the more ethernet choices the less % of being successful)
