I don't believe you're seeing the whole picture. I believe this is
what he's trying to say.
Open Wireless Router.

How does that differ security-wise from what I posted?

You've added another Open Wireless router, but I don't need that. I
just want my current wired LAN plus an open Wireless, and I don't
want people on the open Wireless able to access my wireless LAN (via
sniffing - which should be impossible due to the switches - or ARP
poisoning - which should be impossible due to the routers.)
He was using a wired router and two wireless LANs, but I don't have
the same setup, so I was thinking I could skip one router.
