Wifi Keeps Disconnecting For Six

In my robotics class, a pair of students have a basic Six robot that they are trying to program to do a 5-minute dance routine. They are using the standard, canned, Six movements for their routine and have added a 5-minute mp3 to choreograph to. It's basic stuff, but their Six consistently loses WiFi communication, thus interrupting the dance...

Old School Wireless Camera
