Would it be ok if I used the adapter that plugs into a mains socket and uses wifi to connect to the router ?

No, the EE Smart Router has no DV capability at all.

No I only have one land line.

Then you must have a BT landline hosting an EE copper BB, either ADSL or FTTC, over the same line. EE hasn't sold its BB over somebody else's landline for years.

What does BT Wholesale Broadband Availability Checker estimate for your landline no.? Post the whole table, the text below it and the line above it, blanking out your landline no.

You are currently on 17 Meg ADSL but you could switch to Full Fibre (FTTP), either taking your landline with you as DV or leaving it with BT to go "DV from exchange" as I did.

One must ask about your current situation. Why have you left your landline separate with BT rather than taking it across to EE with your ADSL BB?

@XRaySpeX He may not get the choice as it's a priority exchange! They will do away with the copper when FTTP get's installed!

Why on earth not? He can stay with BT landline & be converted to "DV from landline" as I did when I went from FTTC to FTTP with EE. The 2 are separate at the mo'. I did ask why.

That choice is what I've been highlighting thro'out this thread while you've been stuck on the all-in-1 solution FTTP + DV from EE.

It was implied by "Then the EE Hub will need to be replaced at the point the Line gets switched over to a digital service".
