Guest network when Wifi is only on LAN interface

fred00

New Around Here
In order to have the wifi users be part of the LAN, my AC66U has a single cable connecting into a LAN interface. DHCP and the WAN interface are disabled on the AC66U and it works well for normal users. They get an IP address from the normal DHCP server and can see all the devices.

I'd like to provide a guest network, but how can this be done? Either the guest network would need its own DHCP server and a different gateway, but this does not seem possible.
The other option is to have it get an IP address from the existing DHCP server but to block it from communicating to everything on the LAN range. This seems to work, but it also blocks access to the outbound router.

I'm running 376.45.

Any ideas how this could work? Is there a better way to do this?
