Unloading your/my WiFi

Don't know if this has been run up the pole before or not...
Mamma fox and 3 kits have moved in under a shed in the back yard. So I took my Axis 206W and an extension cord and set up a "Fox Cam". Then I found that my laptopand her tablet were running really slow as was our whole system. So I took an old(er) modem (actiontec Q1000) and installed it in the garage - overlooking shed. I already had a cat-5 cable running there and set the modem to bridge mode and a different channel than my primary modem. So the only thing, WiFi, on my secondary modem is my Fox cam which then hits 100baseT.
Problem solved.
