by measuring the signal power from different angles and locations. install "Wifi Analyzer" (com.vrem.wifianalyzer) or any similar app on your smartphone and try to walk closer and further from your wifi router, you'll get the point.
and then realize that cops have much more advanced equipment than just a smartphone.

yes, it is called BSSID in wifi networks.

BSSID - Basic Service Set Identifier, it's the MAC physical address (radio interface) of the access point or router, so yes the feds can trace back to your router
