I have something like this setup in my office. Here is what I have done:
I have a DSL line what is outside out my firewall and network all together. I setup my guest network on this "what I call" dirty connection. The DSL line is there for backup and as the main point of connection for outside users to connect to my network. I did this because then if someone try's to connect to my network with an infected machine, it doesn't infect anything else. Works great for me, haven't had trouble with it yet.
