The local internet provider will likely provide a wireless router, as they all do. My idea is to put a device which receives wireless signal from the router/modem, and has an RJ45 jack in it in each room. So each room would have one of these, and the devices in it would be hooked to that device via cat 5e. I hope that's clear.
To provide wired internet to a shed which could only get wifi from the house, I installed DD-WRT on a $35 router. Such functionality may be in the stock firmware these days, but probably not on the cheaper devices. Besides being accessible by wired-only devices, that configuration really has few of the advantages enjoyed by wired devices over wifi ones. -- "Hear Me, for I am The Lord.
