Here's my stance on it the PD board. Besides it making no sense... how is it that a consumer grade Linksys router (the one provided on the practice field) is able to keep a connection, while FIRST's field system using high quality equipment cannot keep a connection if there is really ripple from the PD board, even while still?

If we do get to Lone Star, we will be swapping out the PD board, because that is the last thing to swap. I'm also loading our stripped down code and going bare minimal for at least our first match for Thursday to verify we're all good to go, then increase the complexity throughout the day.
