Re: wireless communication sparatic/dangerous

UPDATE!!

Just found out the issue is in our classmate!

The wireless in our teams classmate has a huge latency in the communication with the router from the wireless card. I spent a total of about 30 hours fighting this thing and here is what I got. Our new classmate....Rookies only....PINGS from 100ms to 1623ms....Opened it up and the wire on the antenna is connected well. Per request of CTL tech, I loaded the new driver in it from CTLcorp FTP and the issue still occurs.

I loaded the driver station into my VIAO and I had a 1ms to 2ms PING return.

So here is the bad news. If you PING the router and have this kind of response the issue may be in the classmate itself. Mine will be going back to CTL for review/repair.

I suggest if you are having this issue Ping the router and check your return rates. If you have the slow speeds you need to load the driver station onto a separate laptop and check if you have the same condition. Hope this helps before pulling anymore hair out.
