Let me ask you this;

Do you listen to the radio at all? If so, you are letting wireless radio waves pass through you all the time. In fact, even if you are not listening to a radio, the whole world is bathed in electromagnetic radio waves constantly.

They do no harm.

However, the jury is still out on cell phone micro wave transmission, but that is different to wireless radio waves which routers use.

My friend,

These radio waves do not harm at all. You can use it freely.
