Driver Station - Static 10.TE.AM.5 would be a reasonable choice, subnet mask must be 255.0.0.0
When there is a communication problem on a DS and they have informed me they are using static IPs, or I drag it out of them after getting the deer-in-the-headlights look when I ask, this is very often the issue. Everyone is so used to using /24 submasks (255.255.255.0) when this particular one must be a /8 (255.0.0.0). The funny thing is that most versions of Windows that I know of automatically default to a /8 when you enter a 10. IP.

255.255.255.0 was useful when imaging the crio. The program would search all possible internet address. Using the small address space (subnet mask) speeded things up. However, once we go to a competition, we had to change it to 255.0.0.0. Otherwise it couldn't talk to FMS. Too bad they couldn't write FMS with a simulated IP address of 10.xx.yy.255 for each team.
