I'm guessing the Cisco Wifi router has 3 channels, and 2 robots are assigned to each channel. Wifi Contention could delay the receipt of commands by a robot.
The FMS AP has 6 SSIDs Each robot & DS is own its own VLAN & AP. Presumably there is only one ethernet connection to the FMS server. The FMS server sends the enable to the Driver stations which then send the enable to the robots. I don't know how you would be able to predict how much jitter is in all that what testing. Since the enable is being processed by the DS, maybe the speed of the DS has some effect as well?
