Is there any way to isolate the wired and wireless networks,
so that they both access the Internet, but can't access each other?

A Netgear MR814 Wireless Router (w/4 wired ports) is being used - but
there is also a D-Link DI-704P Wired router and a plan hub available
if needed to do this properly.

I think someone mentioned (on the newsgroup) to wire the two routers
together - and that would cause some issues with some services (due to
two DHCP servers being used)...

Any suggested security resources? I've turned on WEP 128, turned off
SSID, changed the password, change the IP of the router and valid IP
addresses.
Give access only to MAC of the specific card.... and as of now, I turn
off the wireless portion whenever my PCs are on... (those have
firewall software) I would've bought the latest and greatest... but I
don't believe even the security there is good enough yet...

Thanks
