Yeah, the WGA last year was only a bridge. The DAP this year is a full-blown router that can be switched between bridge and Access Point modes. I usually call it the "robot radio", but when I'm feeling especially pedantic I say "router".

To get the wireless communication going, we had to logout of the Driver login, log in as Developer, set the WPA key, get the classmate to find the robot network, log out of Developer, then log back in as Driver.

That suggests to me that you did more to the router than the instructions said to do. Specifically, you probably entered a WPA key when doing the Access Point configuration. The new setup document shows exactly how to do that if you want to, but it's not in the original instructions.
(I'm surprised that the Classmate didn't pop up a window asking for the key when it tried to connect to the Access Point, but it might just be my Macintosh background leading me to expect such helpful behavior. I don't have a lot of experience with Windows networking.)
