Operating two Robots Simultaneously

I need help...we've done this many times before, but for some reason we can't get it to work now. We'd like to run our previous two robots at the same time for demonstration purposes. In the past we've taken one of the two and reprogrammed the bridge and driver station to a different team number (we usually pick 9999). When we try that now the robot does not respond.

To run both, we've begun to run RR with an Ethernet cable, and AA wirelessly.

Ideally, we'd like to run the last three robots simultaneously - but we currently have only two driver stations set up.

RR is (of course) a RoboRIO bot, with the newest version of Labview and the newest Driver Station. AA and UA are both CRIO bots, but we have the 2014 driver station software in a separate folder on our main driver station laptop. We usually just try to use any of the other Labview-installed laptops to run RR, since they all have the latest driver station software.

Please help - We have a demo scheduled for July 3 where I'd really like to have 2 or even 3 robots running together.
