Ethernet is a set of protocols to establish a LAN.
An LAN card is a must if you wish to connect to a LAN but it is not required for WAN
An Ethernet wall jack is a fixed network connector installed in walls, allowing devices to connect to a wired local area network (LAN). It typically resembles a standard electrical outlet but is designed for Ethernet cables, which transmit data at high speeds. This setup provides a reliable internet connection for devices like computers, printers, and smart TVs, reducing reliance on wireless networks. Ethernet wall jacks are commonly used in homes and offices for enhanced network performance and stability.
LANs are networks that connect devices, like computers and printers, over short distances typically within an office premises or campus.Communication devices are connected through cables within a distance of 2000 feet.Newer terms like Wireless Local Area Network(WLAN) and Blutooth technology are also associated with LAN today.
An onboard LAN is a built-in ethernet adapter on mother board, if you have an onboard LAN, then, there is no need to install another ethernet card for your purpose.
LAN (Local area network) connects devices (computers) that are within a relatively small geographical are like a room or a building. The most popular connection technology for LANs is Ethernet.

If you are talking about a LAN, then just making sure that all devices and cables are capable of gigabit speeds.
LAN setup can cover like a build
LAN
It depends on the type of LAN; the most common cable in a LAN is UTP cable. In older LAN types you could also use coaxial copper cable. For UTP cable that would be Cat 5, cat 5E or above for most LANs.
