DSL is slow compared to cabled ethernet , typically under 50Mbps, so you're 1Gb network card will be probably max out your DSL bandwidth and may slow down all the wifi devices as well.

No, it will not. In fact, it would probably be faster than wifi and improve the wifi on the other device since there is one less device on wifi.

As others have said, DSL is sloooow.
Plugging in a computer via ethernet will help that one computer and possibly help your other wireless devices due to less wireless congestion but, you are ultimately limited by your DSL speeds. Your plugged in computer (in fact, any device connected to the network) can easily use all of the available bandwidth of standard DSL connections (typically 5-10Mbit) just by streaming videos, playing online games, or downloading content.
