Any router should do. All a router basically is is a gateway with a DHCP server in it. They do a lot more than just share an internet connection. But to Answer your question about the kind of cable you will need is a straight through cable going to your xbox and another one going to you PC. If you do plan on sharinf an internet connection you will need a crossover cable between the router and the Cable/DSL modem.
