Re: WiFi in pits

Quote:
From a debugging standpoint if no one else is using WiFi then any problems encountered - and there have been a few - and you can immediately eliminate any interference due to improper setup or jamming or other random effects. The bug to chase is localized in the FMS somewhere...
Even if no one is using wifi this would be a very dangerous assumption to make--for one, 802.11n isn't the only thing that uses the 5ghz band. There could also conviveably be electrical noise issues from the robots that affect a lot of frequencies. And finally, if you immediate decide that the problem couldn't be the wifi link because no one's using wifi, you ignore the possibility that either.
1.Someone didn't get the memo--after all, some of these events have thousands of spectators, and not all of them are neccesarily going to know the rules
2.Someone is deliberatley trying to bring down the system by use of a jammer or some wifi-specific attack
