I just tested driving on blocks with the radio on the outside of the robot (Completely away from the Cims). After about 25 seconds of driving the robot code light started flashing on and off and then I could not connect anymore.

The easiest thing to check right now is the power wiring to your D-Link. Make sure it's done as follows:

dedicated 12v output on Power Distribution Board (white Wago plug)
to
red and black wires on 12v-to-5v converter module

yellow and black wires on 12v-to-5v converter module
to
D-Link 5v power input

Any other wiring scheme will potentially cause the D-Link to lose power when the battery voltage sags.
