The cRIO is connected with a regular ethernet cable. Any tips for me to get this to get working? Thanks.
I know this thread began over 2 weeks ago and the OP may no longer be having this particular problem.

However, I've just gone through the re-imaging process several times and I see why so many people have been having trouble with it.

You should not direct connect (crossover cable or not) your PC to the cRio when re-imaging.
Use cable instead of wireless, but use a switch or hub between the cRio and the PC.
The reason is the cRio is rebooted several times during the imaging process.
Each time the cRio reboots, it has the potential to disrupt link status on your PC LAN connection.
The time it takes your PC to recover from the lost link status, and the extent to which that makes your PC unable to communicate with the cRio is more or less -- depending on your machine.

In my case, this morning, my laptop would not successfully image the cRio with a direct cable connection. After putting a switch in between, it worked first time. The switch prevents my wired port from losing link status when the cRio boots and that made all the difference.
