Can ping RoboRIO, but can't connect

Technical Control System
1

On one of our roborios, I’ve successfully reimaged, and updated the firmware on all the components of the control system.
(On our other roborio, it just refused to reimage altogether; that’s another story. Though despite refusing to reimage, I can at least connect to it in the driver station)

I’ve tried connecting through the robot radio, ethernet, and USB.
In the driver station, the diagnostics light on the robot is always green, and when connecting wirelessly, the robot radio light is also green.
In the page where you select the team number, clicking the arrow menu shows 2067-frc as a detected roborio.
I’ve uninstalled antivirus and disabled all firewalls.
I’ve tried connecting on three different computers, and restarting the driver station and the robot repeatedly.
From lurking the forums, I’ve tried various solutions, but I can never get a successful connection.

I’ve spent hours these past few days trying to resolve this, but our control system seems completely dysfunctional.

Any ideas?

Can you use IE or another silverlight capable browser to navigate to the roboRIO-2067-frc.local? If so, this indicates that mDNS is working and the problem would seem to be the image on the roboRIO. You could also verify this by using puTTY or another connection tool to log into the roboRIO and see what “ps | grep FRC” returns.

Indeed, I was able to connect through the browser.
So as you suspected, it seemed like it was a problem with the image.

Reimaged the roborio again, and now it works.
Thanks!
