Can't connect using romi reference project

Technical Romi
1

I copied and opened the wpi romi reference project in VSCode. I have made no changes to it. Following the instructions I chose “simulate robot code” in VSCode. Build looks good, but I don’t get the WS connected message. Instead I get repeated connection attempts.

I can connect to the ROMI using the WPILibPi Web tool and view its status, so I know it is on my wifi. Below is the terminal output from VSCode. Any suggestions why it is not connecting?

Thanks

I think I solved my problem. Has to do with resolving the correct IP address and plugging it into the build.gradle file. See my post.
