Go to Post If your robot doesn't work, it doesn't matter, because the robot is really meaningless, in the long run. What is the important thing, the reason we're all in FIRST then? To better our understanding of Science and Technology, and hopefully make the world a better place. - Ian W. [more]

Re: [FTC]: FCS issue

Lagging and disconnects are most common when operating in a noisy environment. You want to use the recommended router for the FCS. You also want to set it to run on the channel with the least interference. Scan the area. You want to try to shut down any other wi-fi networks in the vicinity if possible. I would also avoid wireless mikes - we have been able to demonstrate interference between some microphones and the robots. You also want to disable bluetooth on the NXT.

Also, some computers have problems with the FCS, so it might be worthwhile trying one or two.

Just a few suggestions from a long-time FTA.
