How to set up LAN on the wall of the apartment to internet.

I want to use LAN on the wall to the PC, but it does not have internet, while I am using the router from XFINITY. My current situation is that I have connect  coaxial connection between wall (picture 1 ) and Xfinity router (a white tall one no showing in the picture).  so should I connect an ethernet cable from router back to wall (picture 1), or I should do something else on other side, like showing in other three picture.

@Setsuna_y It looks like you are trying to set up an Ethernet switch. Typically, those would work by connecting an Ethernet cord into the WAN port and then the four additional Ethernet ports would be used to connect to any other Ethernet ports you have pre-installed. This would be something beyond our level of support though. Just to confirm, is the modem itself online, and you are able to access the internet with the Ethernet port on the back of our modem or via Wi-Fi?

Setsuna_y we appreciate you answering all our questions. Since your modem is online and connected your best bet is to contact the equipment manufacturer to set up your third-party equipment. You will want to use your modem to get service. The LAN ports on the wall may or may not be active.
