We can not get the driver's station team number set up. We need help.

That is from the control system documentation. The relevant information is:
3.1.5.1 Setting Team ID
The team number is stored on the driver station and is used to generate the IP addresses for the
Driver Station and the Robot. In order to set or change the Team ID on the Driver Station the
following sequence is used:
1. Hold the DOWN button (center button under the LCD Display) wait for over 5 seconds until
the LCD Display changes. It should read “SET TEAM NUMBER” with the current number
displayed.
2. Use the UP button (leftmost) to increment the current highlighted digit to desired number.
Holding this button will continue to increment up to the number Nine and then it rolls over
back to Zero. There is no going back only counting up.
3. To move to the next digit for setting, hold the Down button until the desired digit is
highlighted. Note: It is not necessary to re-set every digit if they are currently correct. In the
case of a single digit team, only the rightmost digit must be set.
4. To cause the new Team ID to be stored, push and hold the SELECT button (rightmost) until
the LCD screen changes and indicates updating. Note: The Driver Station will reboot after
this point.

We already tried that and we've been holding down the down button for a minute! We don't know what's goin' on!

What firmware version is running in your Driver Station? If you see "OTB" at the bottom of the screen, you still have the "Out of The Box" firmware, which does not support changing the team number. You'll have to update the firmware first.

If this is the case, http://www.usfirst.org/frccontrolsystem Software Updates has the directions and the .bin file you need.
