Can I set up a router in my pit to help my iPad remotely connect to my laptop for scouting, or no?

I know you already got your answer, but this is something that seems to be very common lately, and I wanted to call attention to it.

It's kind of frustrating to see posts in the form of "I know this is against the rules, but can I do it anyway?". It's frustrating to everyone who has to answer and tell you "no, you can't do it" and I'd bet it's frustrating to you because I don't think you meant to ask that question.

To me, it seemed more like you wanted to know if you could achieve your goal while still being in compliance of the rules, in which case you should explain what you're trying to do, which rule(s) you think you're in conflict of, ask for confirmation and for suggestions how else to solve your problem. I think that will be much more happily received around here, and it's good practice, since you'll need to use the same technique to deal with your future bosses

Just wanted to call attention to this and see if we can improve, I'm not calling you out all on your lonesome.
