No, it would not be the same. An Ethernet adapter connects via a physical port, while plugging into Wi-Fi uses wireless transmission.

Are you referring to powerline Ethernet or the modem/router/switch provided by your ISP? From a network layout perspective, they’re essentially the same; though powerline has limitations and works best in ideal conditions, it’s worth using only when no other choices exist.

If you're wondering whether powerline adapters match plugging directly into your router, the answer is no. Their performance varies widely—sometimes they function adequately, other times not at all. Many factors influence their effectiveness, such as your home's electrical setup and the distance between the adapters and devices. An Ethernet cable remains a superior choice. Currently, with Wi-Fi speeds advancing rapidly, a solid Wi-Fi router paired with a well-signed adapter is often a more reliable solution than using a powerline adapter.

For Ethernet, a direct physical connection from your computer to the router is required. Using coaxial cable between the computer and router could work, but you'd need to check Moca adapters.

It is utilized for transmitting cable television or internet services. It's typical for such wiring to be embedded within the walls already.

The issue is that while you can relocate your Wi-Fi router, you're unsure how to connect the DSL cable since it only goes into the wall and doesn't show up on your side. You just need to make the DSL connection work so everything functions properly.

DSL relies on telephone cables. It seems the cable isn't connected to a wall jack, but rather has an end attached and plugged into your gateway. Based on what I've learned, without understanding your home's wiring, I can't confirm if it's possible to relocate it.
