Doing a 14 day trip in April next year as well, starting in Tokyo for 5 days, then staying in Osaka and doing Osaka/Kyoto for 6 days, then staying in Hiroshima for 3 days. Definitely split up the trip, don't stay in Tokyo for that long.
I recommend booking accommodations soon. A lot of the ones with decent prices or in good locations are already gone. Depends what style you are looking for though, we went with a combination of hotel, hostel and airbnb. As for wifi, I'm finding when I was booking that a lot of the places included a pocket wifi device for you to use.
What type of things are interesting to you? Museums? Temples? Hikes? Photo/scenic areas?
I'm already planning a second trip for fall/winter in Hokkaido, I think that would be spectacular.
