Small Business: Coffee shop/POS and admin/ Golf Simulators

Need to find a solution for my business.  I need a modem/router or a modem and then a router to be able to have hardwire network, administration network wireless with 5 streaming TVs, and a guest network with restriction and landing page for coffee shop atmosphere.  3,000sq/ft facility, not sure if we would need an access point set up. The hardwire network will have gaming computers for golf simulators.  Any suggestions?

      Suggestions? 

      1. A business class AP and not gaming. I'd go with something insight managed so you can set VLAN's to separate out your traffic

      2. a modem only device. Talk to your ISP. Some ISP's have data caps and you might want a business setup connection versus consumer. They might provide a modem included free or have a recommendation that works best for your setup. I'd check with them. 

      3. Post in the business class forum for assistance. They'll be better than the pro-gaming forum for business class setup.
