Second WLAN SSID

Hi, not specifically a squeezebox/LMS related question, more a network configuration question, but I'd thought I'd tap into the huge collective pool of knowledge here...

What I want to do is set my router up to offer two WIFI networks (ie. two NW SSIDs each with a different PW). The reason is I occasionally rent the property and don't want to release the main network access details.

I thought it could be done using a "guest WIFI" option on the router, but it seems my talktalk (uk based) router doesn't support this, and I'm not sure it's easy to use a 3rd party router.

The other way I can think of is to add a second router as an access point, linked by CAT-5 ethernet to the "main" router. That should work, I've done it before.

Just wondered if there were any less clunky ways of doing this?
