Would this setup work?

Access

We currently get our broadband via phone line and a sky wifi hub. I would like to limit the access my kids have to the internet on tablets and a laptop... so that i can turn off their wifi access at a certain time.

I have a few old eircom wifi routers and i was thinking of using one connected to the sky hub by ethernet cable therefore having two wifi networks broadcasting in the house. I would keep the kids off the sky hub wifi network and have their tech connect to the old eircom router wifi.

I would then have the eircom router on a basic plug in timer that would go on and off at the times i set.

Would this setup work? I know i would probably need to turn on bridging mode in the old eircom router if it has it?

Any cons to this setup?

Thanks for any help on this.

Yes, it would work ...... and no, bridging would not be necessary. (presuming a 'sky hub' is a router)

Ensure the Wifi channels for the two are well separated to prevent interference.

Depending on router used it might have some form of timer built in to cut off at a certain time.
An external timer would also work of course.
