This is an engineering competition. In engineering, one has to make tough choices based on one's priorities.

All of that is true, IF you use Wi-Fi. As many other posters have noted, there are plausible Wi-Fi alternatives that works just as well, if not better. In engineering, one has to make tough choices, or be smart about the design and have all the features you want.
To answer OP's original question, I would try sanddrag's method. It has successfully worked with us in the past and is fairly easy to set up. If you can't use the internet, which might be the case this year, try an offline server running on WAMP.
