to extend on that, because the robots work on wifi, it is not likely that you will be able to use wifi at all. now to tell you how to by pass this is what i will tell you. Bring a ethernet switch and a laptop to your competition. set the laptop up to be the server that the scouts dump the data from their laptops into. keep in mind you will need alot of ethernet cables. good luck.
