No. They have a very low wattage of radiation, far below what would be harmful.

No. The wireless functionality of the router is actually radio waves. Wireless usually runs at 2.4 GHz, the same frequency as some cordless phones, fluorescent lighting, and microwaves.
The main concern for wifi is security. Wireless signals, if not encrypted, are fairly easy to intercept.

It's theoretically possible that all electromagnetic devices are harmful to you. Wifi signals are quite low in power, compared to items you're already using (cell phone, microwave, ect).
It's also possible that wifi tempts you to spend more time online, and less time getting up and out of the house. This is the most likely health risk.

I have never heard anything bad about them, but they might be harmful with radiation just like cell phones.

no mot really but you should be concern about your security because if anyone hack in there, that will be a problem. But to prevent that is to have up-to-date antivirus software. Have a nice day!!
