How to connect 21 devices to a network?

Currently we have 21 devices which need to connect to the internet in our home.
7 Laptops (2 connected via ethernet)
2 Desktops (2 connected via ethernet)
1 IPOD
1 Nook color
1 Tablet
2 Playstation 3 (1 connected via ethernet)
2 Wii
1 XBOX360
2 cell phones
1 Nintendo 3DS
1 Printer (connected via usb to one of the hardwired desktops)

To connect all of this I have 1 CISCO Linksys router 2 Belkin wireless routers, 1 D-Link 10/100 fast Ethernet Switch and one cable modem. I would like to have 2 of these devices on their on separate network wireless but on the same shared internet connection. The other 19 devices I would like in their own network if possible. 5 out of the 21 devices are all cat6 wired the rest of the 16 devices are wireless devices.
Added (1). My current network setup is one cable modem, and one CISCO Linksys router. Wired by cat6 Ethernet to the router are my PS3, 2 Laptops and 1 desktop and all the rest of the devices are wireless. Problem is I keep having to reset the router because the wireless devices cant connect to the internet only the network. But the wired devices are working fine all of the time.
