I'm not sure about the exact translation (I'm not a native English speaker) but yes, my ceilings and some walls are made by a metal mesh embedded in concrete > That metal mesh works as a pretty darned efficient > farraday sheild, which means you'll only get decent signals in the same > room, and in a line of sight from the door, and nowhere else. That's exactly what happens > it is probably your house to blame, and not WiFi. > So maybe you should change the subject to "STAY AWAY FROM OLD HOUSES > WITH PLASTER WALLS AND CEILINGS!". Uhmmm... yes, you are probably right but in practice, who will move to another house just to setup a mythbox? Also, in some countries like here, most of the buildings, if not all, are made like that, including new ones. So I apologize again for the wrong all caps subject but as a matter of fact, wether the guilt is to be attributed to wi-fi or to the building, lots of people will experience the same problems if they'll try to setup wi-fi at home, and it's easier to stay away from wi-wi than from their own home...
