Two physically different devices on different interfaces with the same IP

I have two GoPro cameras that I am trying to connect to simultaneously. They each act as routers, which my two wireless cards connect to. The problem is, they both have IP 10.5.5.9, and I want to be able to run a python script that sends traffic to one, through one interface, and a second instance of the same script to send traffic to the other, through another interface.

Netns would have been ideal, however my wireless cards/drivers do not support it (set netns not in list of supported commands given by iw phy). I have set up static IP such that each interface has a different address. Each works individually when the other interface is set down using ip link.

I've tried various routing as well, like this one, andthis one, with both resulting in only one interface being accessible.

Is there any way to accomplish this goal?

Why do both systems have the same IP? Why can't you change one so they each have a unique address? – Zoredache Jun 12 '18 at 20:18
Create 2 VM's and give each one access to one of the wireless cards then run NAT on the VM's to let the parent machine get to both. – chicks Jun 12 '18 at 22:07
The IP is set in the firmware, I cannot change it. – dubble_oh_nexus Jun 13 '18 at 14:03
