I do have previous experience with this at my school. The entire thread can be found here (
http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=98006). And yea I did the laptop-internet-pass-through; and I thank Mark for all his help when I was attempting to do this.
Page 2 is where it starts to come together, (page 1 might provide some info if you are interested).
2 things to note about the thread. There is a point where I do have it setup with relaxed network security settings (probably what you want) and when I did this I just made a pretend-wifi-network and then tested it at my house.
Then the other thing. This is because my school complicated things.
My school has WPA2 Enterprise security settings (for logging in), so I had to place a laptop onto the robot and under network adapter settings I had to bridge the wired and wireless networks on the laptop settings; this was more to simply create an internet pass-through.
This is to be a fix to have both audio and vid of the robot.
The laptop on the robot idea (stated above) also allowed me to have (from my controlling laptop) a video chat to the computer on the robot so that I had audio and vid (FRC Axis cam didn't work); I think I needed a wired + a wireless connection from the control laptop to do that, and it did not matter for the laptop on the robot to have a specific IP address.
Hope this helps. Let us know how it goes.
