Thanks for the replies.
The system is working now, just a couple notes in case they might be helpful to someone else:

After having mucked up the set-up, we were trying to start over by using the Factory Reset button on the wireless bridge, changing the IP address of the router back to the original value in the setup, and starting the FIRST instructions again from the beginning.

This approach didn't work until I changed the SSID name on the router to something other than my team number before setting up the bridge. Leaving the correct name would cause a conflict as soon as I changed the SSID on the bridge. After doing this, and following the instructions correctly from the beginning, everything worked.
