So the d-link is connected to the C-Rio, and the classmate we only use the wifi of it to connect? Not connect it to the gaming adapter that we had last year? And for that what would be the ips of the computer and the d-link? IS it this: 10.15.14.50 and 10.15.14.51?

This has been answered in other post by Mark but here it is:

At competition (not at home)...

You will take your DLink to a special WPA kiosk to make the event specific settings. These include setting the switch on the back to Bridge mode, resetting the DLink, hooking it up to the WPA kiosk, and the kiosk will supply a WPA security key unique to each team.

When you return home you will return your DLink to AP mode and remove the WPA security set at competition.

Last year's gaming adaptor is not legal for game play in 2011.

At the event for your match, you will plug your driver station laptop into an ethernet cable at the player station.
The Driver Station application will link up with the Field Management System (FMS), and through a VPN unique to your team the field router ill connect to your robot.
