That is the reason why you use Bluetooth in competitions!

This topic has been beaten to death in numerous other threads. Do a search, you'll find them.
As for the WIFI, I agree that offering it would provide many benefits, not limited to teams being able to use the internet, but also to less interference with the field because teams aren't setting up their own connections.
That being said, it's not on the teams to bring their own 4g hotspot and router and set up their own network. It's on FIRST and the event staff to allow it and set it up. Please don't break the rules, the FTA and field staff have a very difficult job to do, and they don't need teams and individuals causing them numerous delays to the event schedule because they decide to do something unwise.
