Re: Your take on CAN...

You're right that if they are running at 5 Ghz (which they should be), then they should be isolated from other networks running at 2.4 Ghz, but not other 5 Ghz networks in use. And while they may be running each team on a separate channel, there *appears* to be an issue that is correlated to the number of camera feeds streaming on the field.

I noticed this phenomenon last year, and it seems to be worse this year. I may have jumped to the wrong conclusion but I think that someone should be looking with a network analyzer to see what is really happening on the field during matches with various compositions of streamers, and/or robots making use of the open channels from/to the cRIO, the dashboard, and the driver station.
