Is wireless slower than wired if it comes from the same router from the same adsl connection?

Normally, yes.
The max speed of the most common wireless standard, 802.11g, is about 54 Mbps while the router will support wired transfer speeds of 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps (Gigabit network).
Your internet connection is slower than either of those, broadband internet is in the range 1-10 Mbps, so you won't notice if you use the wireless just for browsing.
The speed difference between wired and wireless is definitely noticeable when you copy files between two computers on the local network.
