Hi everyone,

First I'd like to say that I'm sorry if I don't use the correct terminology, I'm not a pro nor is English my first language. I hope you'll be able to understand my blahblah and correct me where I'm wrong :)

I'm looking for an advice to change the setup of my home network. Here is an image of the actual disposition : http://s11.postimg.org/mv7wodlgj/network.png

The ISP modem/router hosts the DHCP and is wireless enabled. The Wireless AP is actually a D-Link wireless router configured to just bridge the connection for a bunch of (wired or not) devices. The switch is an unmanaged one.

What I'd like to do is to separate the devices connecting to the "Wireless AP" of the rest of the network, still allowing internet connectivity, without modifying anything "before" the wireless AP. What I had in mind was to setup, one way or another, a gateway + DHCP somewhere between the switch and the wireless AP, but I'm not sure if it's the "right solution", nor how to do it.

How would you do this ? :)
