John,

I may be misunderstanding your comment # 3. Please clarify if my comments don't make sense.

3) We run the CRIO connection directly to the radio and connect the radio directly to the 2CAN rather than passing all CRIO traffic through the 2CAN.

I thought the 2CAN was to be connected to the CRIO on port # 2. Since port # 2 is on a different network the traffic is isolated from the robot communication traffic on the wireless. That is how ours is wired and we just completed 2 regional events without any control issues. We had other issues, just not control ones...

It seems adding that additional load through the radio switch and robot communication network could indeed cause problems.
