No, the length of the copper cable is irrelevant to the wireless signal strength.

 

Be wary of metal rails in ceilings and big walls etc... - Maybe there's an edugeek guide to wireless network installation somewhere....

 

If in doubt, plug it in and see how it performs then be able to move it around!

Wire-less == no wire. :)

 

No wire == no 2nd dimension therefore length doesn't exist :)

 

But on serious note, the length restriction is due to the way twisted pair - wired ethernet was designed and when they designed wireless they made sure it dodn't have the same restriction. :)
