You'll never be able to legally maintain a connection from the pit all the way to running a match on the field. In the pit, you MUST only communicate with the robot on tether. On the field your robot is wireless and your driver station is connected to the wireless network through a wired LAN connection. I can think of no way for your driver station to stay linked to your robot through this process unless you're illegally wirelessly communicating with your robot. Or, i suppose, if you have two lan ports and do something exceedingly weird and clunky that's likely to be a huge delay of the game.
