Router WRT54G

If I install the rooter in a shelf, that is closed in it's sides (it's opened only in the front), will it work fine? I'm projecting new forniture for my home office and I'm having trouble to find a place for it that doesn't cause me any loss of performance!

It will work just fine but you might see a slight decrease in range in the direction of the closed sides. Depending on how far away you plan on being from it normally this may or may not be a problem. I would say go for it as the effects will be very minimal.

It will definitely work, just maybe not as well.

It should, mine is behind my big-screen TV, in a completely different room than the computers, and I can pick it up anywhere on my property.

Yes as wireless signals go through walls without much hinderance, metallic objects cause the most problems, pipes in walls, radiators etc.

You could always get an external antenna to extend the range.
