I have a non-amateur 802.11(n) wireless network in my home.
Is it permissible for me to run a RTTY contest from a laptop in my favorite
recliner while watching a football game over this network?

It has no place in amateur radio contesting because
!. It makes a mockery of the 500-metre rule
for equipment and antennas.
2. It tends to involve the replacement, by the
internet, of amateur-band RF in a portion of
the signal path between the operators concerned.
Amateur radio is, by definition, independent of
all other communications modes and communications
technologies. When a "QSO" cannot take place
without the continued availability of other such
modes or technologies, it is no longer an amateur
radio QSO - it becomes a hybrid communications
QSO.
