I don't understand why you are changing your entire internal network
just because you have a different ISP.
Set up the home network however you want, with private addresses. Have
that served by a single wireless router.
Meanwhile coming in from the outside you have two ISPs, each terminating
in a router at your house.
Now connect the single internal router to the two external
ones. Ideally, you could just have the internal one have two DHCP
servers with a priority or something, but there probably isn't any
firmware that does that. You may need a real computer between them. Or
maybe just an A/B switch.
