Bridge incubator -> Fischnetz #4

Although Fischnetz was created to avoid jamming of the ESP/Artnet/DMX network, it would be nice to bridge Incubator to Fischnetz.

The Incubator Access Point and the Fischnetz Access Point could be connected by a LAN cable (or an additional WIFI interface) such that connection attempts from within Incubator to an IP address range of Fischnetz would reach the targeted devices.

This would facilitate both development and usage/control of network devices (manta, fish, quallen), while still keeping the usage of the network low.

It is possible to add static routes to the Fischnetz AP, so no problem from this side. I don't know about the Incubator AP, but it should be possible with most devices. So yes, this is probably just a matter of plugging in a lan cable and configuring the routes.
