There is no need to physically separate the networks. You just need to create two vlan's using 802.1q tagging.
The 310N is capable of doing this, but you may need to put openwrt ( http://openwrt.org) firmware on. Essentially you will have <Internet>-Cisco:877:Vlan:0001 & Vlan:0002 Attach tagged Vlan0001 port to your existing wireless, and Tagged vlan port 0002 to your new wireless. Alternatively you don't even need to buy any additional hardware. You can have multiple essid's off the Linksys, and send the tagged vlans to the linksys, and then seperate them out.
