Certainly no worse than tales of people's wireless giving out when the microwave is on, etc. It was definitely speed with the wireless. It's 54Mbps burst speed IIRC and certainly way below that sustained. If I leave the laptop on wireless I can only transfer files at ~1MBps over to the PCH. By plugging in I get 4-5MBps. Oh, that and I'll get cancer. ;) With modern wiring you can achieve a reliable connection from what I hear.

Power is so volatile that it was never a good idea to try and get a consistent network connection through it. I don't see why you can't do it wireless though? Is it the speed?
