Yep, only no. The job of a modem is to facilitate data flow to/from an Internet access provider. The chore of a router is to split that indicate to various other equipment, like phones or pc'due south. There must be a modem somewhere. If the other stop of that enet terminal ends up on a modem somehow, then yes, you can use your router to make that hardline into Wi-Fi. If the other finish of that enet terminal is blank, then you volition have no internet connexion at all, router useless.
Just be very careful if the other end is hooked to a community modem, like in an apartment building or coffee store etc equally that'll be public admission for the unabridged network, autonomously from truncated bandwidth and probable up/down load issues, a neighbor could be on the aforementioned network/group every bit y'all and if not setup correctly tin crusade all sorts of malicious software issues.

Yes, but no. The job of a modem is to facilitate data period to/from an Isp. The job of a router is to split that signal to various other equipment, like phones or pc's. At that place must exist a modem somewhere. If the other end of that enet terminal ends up on a modem somehow, then yep, you can apply your router to make that hardline into Wi-Fi. If the other end of that enet terminal is blank, then you lot will have no net connection at all, router useless.
Just be very careful if the other finish is hooked to a customs modem, like in an flat building or java store etc equally that'll be public access for the unabridged network, apart from truncated bandwidth and likely upwardly/down load problems, a neighbour could be on the same network/grouping as you and if not setup correctly can cause all sorts of malicious software issues.
