Re: wifi?

As far as I know, FIRST discouraged WiFi, but as stated already, they can't stop venues which already use wireless internet. Buckeye, at least the two years I've been going, has allowed wireless, and you could usually find multiple networks during the competition, including 1676's famous scouting network. I've heard that some regionals completely disallow wireless at their venue in the past. This year may be different with the new control system, but I'll be watching Q&A, and have a plan for wireless and non-wireless scouting methods.
