I can see the tap0 interface on my host at 192.168.7.1 by using ifconfig.
I can also see the eth0 on the qemu machine at 192.168.7.2

However, my host has an ip of 10.0.1.54 with a AP gateway at 10.0.1.1.

Somehow I need to connect the networks and I'm not sure exactly how to do
that so that DNS servers get used and the traffic all flows.
