Guess I was to fast! After a few minutes it was working (did not do anything in the meantime!). The fun fact: I did a reboot with the .224 netmask in the file enabled again and it also worked. This is weird, maybe someone could explain this (why the .255 netmask?) to me, I have no clue why this now works and what causes this behaviour.
