I need advise on setting up a home network.

I need advise on setting up a home network. I have a main house on the upper two floors and a basement suite. I want to run two separate networks on the same internet account. I plan on going from the line in to the gateway bridged out port 1 wan to a 2 port network switch to two separate routers. One router has wifi and 2 wired ports in the suite and the other router has an 8 port switch running to the various rooms in the main house with the wifi turned off and a mesh network attached to two of the lines on the main and upper floor. Will this work? Will the suite and main networks be isolated? Do you foresee any issues with this?

If Shaw provides you with a second external IP address. Should probably just get the tenants to sign up for their own internet account.
