I was getting ready to pose almost the same question.

I also have a pair of private nets I need to connect with a wireless
link.

Both have their own WAN gateway.

However, I do have one difference from Jonathan's setup: network A has a
slow connection, and is only used to route email and news.  The wireless
connection gets all other traffic, mostly ftp and http.
