However I can not bring a cable form the modem to this computer, and I want to speed up the WiFi - what can I do about it? Also, I do have suspicions about browsers just being slower, but this will need to wait until I speed the WiFi itself up.
It's unlikely you'll ever match the Ethernet speed over WiFi. Modern gear usually has 1 Gb Ethernet ports. WiFi speed depends on the band used, distance, interference and more. Further, it's only half duplex.
It can't transmit & receive at the same time, the way Ethernet can.
802.11n uses multiple channels, and can easily achieve 450Mbps, and 802.11ac achieves three times that. Also true full duplex has been demonstrated and is in the near future.
