I ended up with an extra Zotac box (don't ask). Can I install this in my bedroom and access my media library wirelessly or is wireless not fast enough to stream 1080p video? I don't have ethernet going to that room.

It's theoretically fast enough, but often suffers from throughput variations leading to poor playback, which in turn of course depend on hardware an radio environment (distance, wall material, other electronic devices giving interference etc etc).
Why don't you just try it, after having done some minor optimization of the setup (antennas are vertical, box not too close to other electronics, hidden in a cupboard, all those things that may interfer with radio waves).
For a short distance jump (about 30 feet, almost open air) I bought a pair of Netgear WNHDB3004 which has performed flawlessly for 1080 streaming (the bridging part, traditional AP function is so so).

in the bedroom!
