Hi,
I am trying to separate my home network into two. One for business and one for the rest of the family. Lately I got some nasty virus that spread to all 5 computers and I would like to add extra protection to business related HW. My initial thought was to use two routers but then I saw that Linksys and some other vendors are offering Guest network capabilities. I talked to representative and they claim that two networks really independent but I have some gut feeling that this is not as easy as it may seem.
Can you let me know please if Guest feature is for real and if not where can I look up step by step instruction setting a chain of two routers for two independent networks.

Thanks in advance
