Unable to connect to our robot on Mac

our robot communication is done through wifi, when our mac is connected to the robot through wifi, QDriverStation says that there's no communication.

Not sure if this project is still being updated or supported

Hi @drckar and @darthnithin! Unfortunately, I haven´t had access to FRC robots or components since 2016 (I moved to another city while in college). The QDriverStation should work with 2014, 2015, and 2016 robots. However, I cannot guarantee that it works with newer versions :(

If you are interested, you might want to contribute to LibDS, a C library that I developed back in 2016 that handles all the Driver Station <-> Robot communications (QDriverStation is basically the "frontend", while LibDS is the "backend" of the project).

I’ll take a look at LibDS but also yea it doesn’t work out of the box
