So far you have a pretty good handle on this. A couple clarifications...

In Step 4, the computer will have 8 game controllers (2 per team) and the computer is supposed to be wired directly to the router. Also, all the FCS operator needs is your team number, it will then be able to determine the IP address and initiate the connection.

In Step 6, yes your students start execution on the NXT of the autonomous program. The program will run waiting for a packet from the FCS to tell them that they are enabled. When the FCS starts the match, it will send a packet to all the robots enabling the autonomous routines (ie they will exit their wait loop). At the end of autonomous, the FCS will halt the autonomous routine and start the Teleop. The Teleop routine will sit in its wait loop until the FCS sends the enable packet at the begining of the Teleop phase of the match. All throughout the match, the FCS will be sending packets with all the joystick commands.
