I don't understand why that would be the case.

You have a router that provides wired and 3G/4G access to the Internet
and also acts as a wifi access point.

If the landline disappears, all that will happen is that the router
will fall back to 3G/4G, everything else will continue as before.

UNLESS the 3G/4G service is provided by the same provider as the
landline, and the two services are connected in some way, i.e.,
removing the landline also removes the 3G/4G access.

Even then, it will not affect your wifi, and Internet access can be
restored by purchasing a new 3G/4G account from the provider of your
choice, and installing the new SIM into your existing router.
