However, with distance, interference, TCP/IP loading issues (it's a reliable protocol and if you don't understand the implications do some research or this will get too complicated to follow) you don't really have 54Mbps.

If what I was told was correct, this is going to be a problem if your robot is bandwidth hungry.
It wasn't. The field setup uses 5GHz as you can see with a 5GHz NIC or by looking at your radio setup after programming.
