Avoid putting radio trasmitting/receiving devices near metal objects, as the metal gets in the way of the signal.

^ The signal travels in a straight line doesn't it?
The room behind the wall that has the 5 copper pipes running up it isn't gonna have a computer in it. The route to every other room (in a straight line) has no metal object obstructing it as far as I know. So I'm guessing that this will be ok.
