RF blocking walls could be useful for more than just privacy. Could block out neighbors overpowered wifi APs. Just have a data line in and wifi APs inside.

That would work, as far as you don't plan on using your cell phone at home.

    Luckily most carriers support call/SMS over WiFi. And if that isn't available, a signal booster could bridge the RF barrier.
