sorry just wondering about any ad hoc setting between ez b robot cotroller and my laptop/android phone. Will it work out at my cottage where we have no wi-fi available? I want to control robot outside at night to document animals coming around at night ,does the ez b still make it's own wifi connection to my laptop/cell phone? *confused*

Most require confirming the terms of service before they actually route traffic, and many block traffic between connected devices on the router for security, so not likely.
Better would be to connect your computer to the public WiFi, then use Internet connection sharing to serve up network connections to the EZ-B(s).
See http://www.thewindowsclub.com/wifi-hotspot-software-windows for a good article on setting that up.

My guess is "no" and I'd have to bring a router along on the road and keep the EZB's in Client mode.
That being said, you can get a nice little TP-Link travel router that runs on 5v for about $25 and makes it easy.
