Or with the right Linksys & DD-Wrt you can group ethernet ports into separate vlans &
firewall them from each other.

Plug the other two routers into the WAN. One end into one of the WAN
ports and one end into the wan port of the individual routers.
Give your new routers a different IP address, LAN one = 192.168.1.1 and
LAN2 = 192.168.2.1
once you set it up all the routers will have access to the internet but
LAN one will not be able to even see LAN two because the individual
firewalls will block them.
I have this setup using three Linksys routers. I set it up to isolate my
LAN from my WAP. It was easy to setup, but for me it was a bear to
actually get the routers to work the way they were suppose to. I kept
having to call Linksys and they would do things like clone the mac
address or some other trick, and eventually it all worked. However, once
it was up and running it has run flawlessly for four or five years.
Good luck,

Hey,
Every now and then I need to bring people's PCs to my house. I use

net to copy over any files and all that I might need to fix their
machine.
After I am pretty sure I have it all cleaned up, I then will connect
it to
my LAN to make sure all the Windows updates are applied and anything else
that needs updating.
What I'd like to do is to have two networks that can both access the same
internet connection but cannot see each other (unless I wanted them to).
What type of setup would I need to have to do this? Any links that will
demonstrate it?
I currently have a standard Linksys WRT54GS router connected to a
Motorola
cable modem.
Thanks,
