Re: 2012 Team Update 4

As stated above, this issue did occur in Florida last year. Considering that the regional is on UCF's campus, a campus with over 50,000 students, it's not a surprise that there was a lot of wifi in the area. Teams would spend over 5 minutes trying to connect to the field only to be told to try again next time because it was taking too long. Once a team did connect, however, their chances of being found the next time increased exponentially, at least that is what was explained to me. I believe that is why the problem only really occurred on Thursday, because by Friday everyone had been able to connect at least once. At our next regional the FTA wanted everyone to connect to the field at least once on Thursday whether or not they were inspected, probably for this reason.
