No - nothing is made difficult in this context by Fonera.
The Superhub 2 can have more than one service flow allocated to it (this was part of the recent firmware change). The new service flow is independent of yours and performs accordingly. So if you haven't opted out of public WiFi then whatever you're doing in your service flow continues and the public WiFi continues as well.

OK. I get the bit about the additional connection. But in the case of additional kit, your normal connection and domestic WiFi would run in its normal way, but a Fonera-type gadget, presumably connected to a dedicated physical LAN port, would utilise the additional connection.
