Re: Virtual network between a client and the router/AP ?

Well. It won't be two networks if implementing what I explained above.
It will be like every Wi-Fi client has their own network. And since IP addresses will be given by DHCP server, I cannot predict what will have what IP. (unless DHCP server is programmed to work with it some how.)

You want each client to be in its own /30? Maybe this is accomplished via dynamic VLANing and layer 3 switching?

This isn't exactly the same thing, but Cisco APs (at least the older 1230 series) have a feature called "Public Secure Packet Forwarding" also referred to as "client isolation" by other manufacturers. It's basically a way for associated stations from being able to communicate with one another. That should accomplish essentially the same thing as an isolated collision domain.

Thanks.

Although it is not exactly what I mentioned, I think that is exactly what I needed.

It would be great if I can do that on wired network too, but it seems I will be needing Layer 3 switch.
