These are 2 different networks and you need routing between them. You
need a professional router to do this, most home routers are crap and
aren't capable of running such a task.
In my opinion, these HDMI extenders are also crap and should be
forbidden, best thing is to get rid of them and buying some that
support IPv4 and IPv6 where you can set your address manually.

If only the extenders need to communicate to each other, it is easier,
they don't need to care about your subnet, you just need to tell them
the IP address of each other.
