dumb question?

I'm currently with Comcast cable and I'm behind a Netgear router. I'm wired, but my wife who has a new Laptop coming wants to go wireless.

To be honest, I don't like the wireless. Any possibility I could run both off the same cable line?

It's actually easy. Just get something like this:

You'll stay wired, and she can be wireless

If the Netgear router is wireless, you already have what you need.
