Yes, but the connection from the host computer to the robot would not be broken. The connection from the client to host computer over the internet would. The robot would still think the OI is present, even if it was giving garbage data. It may not be very probable, but this system is just an injury waiting to happen.
This all goes to prove a very good point. If there's people or valuables around, and you cant see the robot, don't drive it!
