So assuming by 'wireless modem' you are referring to a cable modem that provides high speed internet and a wireless access point.
I have done this when spending months in a single location (snowbird for 3 months+ for several years) - installing a cable modem compatible with the campgrounds cable provider.
It is VERY sensitive to wiring issues - connections/wiring that will allow you to watch TV may not work at all with a cable modem/high speed internet. I had to run a dedicated wire from outside - thru (under) the slide and up to the 'AV/IT cabinet' that contains my normal cable wiring and switchbox.

If your existing wiring will work - the modem needs to be installed BEFORE the video switching...

Note this is only usable if you are at a campground that happens to have the same cable service you set it up for... If you are setting up for Spectrum (based on your other post) - and the campground has Comcast - it won't work.
Outside of our 'extended stays' - have not used it... Found a portable cellular hotspot to be much more viable (got in on the $20/month Mobley when it was offered.)
