Sorry, I didn't realize that your AP gets *.33. Now both your eth2 and 
AP have the same address and you have to change one of them. According 
to the comment in dhcpd.conf your AP seems to need the *.33 address. 
Therefore you should change the interfaces entry for eth2

iface eth2 inet static
address 192.168.139.34

and the related option routers entry in dhcpd.conf

subnet 192.168.139.32 netmask 255.255.255.240 {
     range 192.168.139.35 192.168.139.39;
         option routers 192.168.139.34;

Then the rest should work as well.
