How can I set up two routers in my house for extra security?

Hello everybody,

I have 3 computers in my house. One computer which is used by my brother and he downloads a ton of porn, music, and opens a lot of ports for online gaming. Needless to say he is a very high risk user. I would like to isolate his computer from mine and my sisters.
Can I use two seperate routers? One router which he connects to and my sister and I connect to the other router. Will this prevent any possible file sharing between my computer and my brothers? Is this a safe way to isolate my computer from his? Please let me know how I can do this. Thanks a lot!!!
 
Well you would need two routers, both set to different channels. One router would need to be set up connecting to your modem etc. and the second router would connect to one of the ports on the back of the first router. I'm not a hundred percent sure on the file sharing thing though. I'd guess he couldn't access your files.
