Had no issues typically. For 5Ghz stuff you don't want more than 50 yards between you and the base station anyway or I've had bad throughput, within that distance having it in the ceiling or closet won't matter. At least that's been my experience. It would depend somewhat on your building materials. Metal studs for example are worse than wood ones I'm sure.
You'd be way worse off with it in a kitchen or other open space with something like a microwave nearby.
