Default Where are your cable modem and wireless router?

My wife and I will occupy our new home in January, so I'm trying to prepare a few things. Very excited to miss our first Chicago winter!

I've heard that a cable modem and wireless router must be located (or wired at) the home's point of entry...and new build's point of entry is in the low-voltage box in the garage.

Is this the case? If so, are you able to get decent wireless reception even though the router is in a metal box in a concrete brick room?

Any education will be much appreciated.
