Is it safe to use this as our circuit with the understanding that the D-link will never max out at 2amps while only using a wireless connection to netbook for control and wired patch cable to Crio. Does anyone know if the system will get a spike in power requirement at the competition with connection to the field control system or if the camera has other functions that would require us to obviously use the 24vdc to 5vdc filter (regulator) that was provided in the kit.

You need to start by re-wiring your robot so that it is in accordance with the approved power distribution wiring diagram provided by FIRST.
