Re: Help Needed for Network

Your post is very vague on exactly what you want to do. That being said, I'll try and give some help. Are you trying to do something like this? robot <--> dlink <~~> linksys router <--> laptop? where <--> is a wired connection and <~~> is a wireless connection?

Edit: Are you trying to get wireless communications with the robot? If so you don't need to use the linksys at all, as you can set up the Dlink as an access point and connect directly to that ("This is the recommended operating mode when teams are developing their robots at home", from the Getting Started With the 2013 Control System pdf on the Kit of Parts website, page 23).
