Modem and Router
Does my router NEED to be connected to my internet service provider's modem? I want to have it in my room but cannot move my internet service's modem into my room.

If you want to connect to the internet with it, it needs to be connected in some fashion whether that be ethernet, moca adapters, or powerline adapters.
If you don't want it to be online, you can put it wherever you want.
