I also have low-E windows all around, and I still have good cell phone reception. I think it's your aluminum siding.

As I understand, low-E reflects solar thermal infrared radiation (3-8 microns, 37-100 THz), while letting through visible light. I don't think it affects 5 GHz radio waves very much.

But yeah, it would be very satisfying to finally wire the house with ethernet.
