Now we're getting somewhere. The Driver Station software sets the wired interface to 10.xx.yy.5 and the wireless to 10.xx.yy.9

I'm now a little confused by "Needless to say this causes a total lack of communication with the robot, which is always bad news." Both of those addresses should communicate with the robot just fine.
