Default Wireless Guest setup via FVS336G

Greetings,
I have recently upgraded our Firewall device to the FVS336G when we moved over to a T1 from DSL. Our LAN side is getting DHCP via an SBS server and the FVS336G is simply being used as the Gateway (Nat) and Firewall. Now I want to connect a DLINK DIR-655 wireless device for Guests to use to get out to the internet, isolated from our network.

On my old setup I did this one level above our firewall router, on the DSL modem, creating a seperate WAN-LAN network connection using one of our available static IPs from our ISP provider to get the DLINK onto the internet seperate from our Internal LAN.

Is this something that I can now accomplish within the FVS336G? The only thing I read that seemed in the ballpark was to perhaps to connect the Dlink via the DMZ port as it appears to be set up by design to be isolated from the main LAN. I think then I would need deal with securing a port that is designed to be more "open" security wise. The DLINK has some amount of Firewall type protections available.

Any pointers in the right/better direction would be greatly appreciated.

-Patrick
