Re: Using the school's Network as the Bridge

It's eminently doable if you have the assistance of the school's IT people, since routers can be purposely set to disallow some types of wireless connections or traffic.

You could of course link your laptop directly to the robot DAP-1522 without any router of any kind, but if by "robot radio" you mean one of the older FRC bridges, then yes you do need a router as an intermediary.

Is this so you can remotely drive the robot all over the school without leaving your room?
