I'm looking to connect my PC to my WiFi through an Ethernet cable to take advantage of faster internet speeds. Additionally, I want to connect a secondary monitor to the PC, which will also be on the same network via a switch. Is this setup feasible? Can I also connect various peripherals to my PC?

Just to clarify, monitors aren't connected to networks directly; they plug into your PC. But yes, your PC can connect to your router with an Ethernet cable without any issues.
Yes, you can definitely connect your PC to your router using an Ethernet cable for better speed. Just make sure to use the right ports on your router. However, when it comes to monitors, they don't connect to networks like computers do. They connect directly to the PC using display connectors such as HDMI, DVI, or DisplayPort. So, no direct network connection from a monitor to a PC is possible.
You might want to look into HDMI over Ethernet if you're trying to send video over long distances. But remember, monitors connect to PCs through cables, not over a network.
