not another router, but another connection to your existing router, whether that be ethernet cable or a wireless adapter for the second xbox. Each live account needs an e-mail address, so you may have to set up another of those with your ISP, or use a gmail/hotmail account.......Gettin' There, Wherever There is......
I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple

Xbox should find the router and you supply the encryption key - also known as the WPA key. This might be printed on a label under the router, or ask your younger son how to.
You might use the existing email account, don't see why not.
PS I know little about the xbox and details involved with that unit. Hope it works out on the day.0
