Hi, I am going to setup a home office and I need two computers to get online at the same time. Instead of using a business multi-user broadband option, the customer service operator suggested that “I can use a single-line broadband and connect two computers to a Router, then both of them can get online together”. However, the operator did not provide any further information.

Could anyone please tell me exactly what he meant? In addition, how to setup the broadband connection (for the two computers) after I got the router? Thanks a lot.
 
He means buy a router (wired or wireless) to split your internet connection between multiple computers. A router simply takes in your internet connection, and splits it with the users that plug there computer into the router. If your 2 computers are close together, i would suggest getting a wired router, if there far apart (seperate rooms, etc) then go wireless. In order to go wireless or wired, you need to also buy a network card (most new computers come with wired lan built in) so thats what he meant, if you want further information on setting up a wired or wireless network, then you should start a new thread with exactly what your trying to do and what parts you bought.
