I could see how they could pass off the signal thing by saying it piggy backed on some of the other communications equipment the vehicles carry, but how did she know where Arnold and Connor were? The police vehicles don't have those types of sensors to relay the info back to her. All in all a cool scene, just not a believable one.

do you need to have a laptop "in sight" of a wireless router for it to transmit...i don't think so. radio waves can go anywhere they want.
she used nanomachines to modify the cars so that she could control them wirelessly. she is designed to assimilate other machines... if they aren't capable of doing what she wants, then she "rebuilds" them. by the time she was done with them, those vehicles were basically cars of the future (except they still run on gasoline)
