Multiple cameras on one Robot

We are looking at putting many cameras on our robot, and I have a few questions, because I don't want us to be that team that shows up at competition and sucks down all of the bandwith.

1. I am making the assumption that we should limit camera usage to 6 mbps, leaving 1 of our 7 for direct Roborio communication, is that correct?
2. We want the option of using 3 cameras at once, and based on this whitepaper on page 7, running our cameras (Axis M1011s) at 10 fps and 30 compression on 320x240 will be well under the 6mbps limit. We have tested this in our shop and it works to our satisfaction. Are these numbers correct and can we use a 3 camera setup this way?
3. Does the router imaging tool limit you to 7 mbps so we can double check that we are not hitting the bandwith limit in our shop? Or must we manually do this limit in the router? (I think I saw this when looking through router settings before, but I can't check right now, because this snowstorm has our school closed.)
4. If we write dashboard code that swaps between camera feeds (changes which camera it is displaying) by putting a case structure over the dashboard image ip-address box (we are a LabVIEW team) and changing the ip-address it is connecting to, will that make the system act as if it is connecting to one camera for bandwith purposes?

Thanks for any knowledge
