Re: Static IPs on the field
People -- the OpenMesh OM5P-AN radio can run a DHCP server. Enable it!
Then set a DHCP reservation to put your Robrio at the .2 address (e.g. for us that's 10.28.77.2). Set a reservation for your IP camera, if you have one (I think the old convention was the use the .5 address for the camera, or was it .11?). The OM5P-AN should be at the .1 address of course.
This is much better than statically assigned addresses because you don't have to worry about manually changing the Robrio, drive laptop, and/or camera back and forth between static and dynamic address assignment when you're testing, or at the competition -- or simply moving the laptop connection from the robot to your local WiFi because you to look something up on the Internet.
