If you find the person who did this you should probably offer them a job. maybe a call to your local FCC inspector might be in order. Even though these are part 15 devices I'm pretty sure that this would count as intentional malicious interference. What's the duty cycle of the spectrum? Is it actually interfering with your operations?

We are seeing an SSID named 'ACCESS DENIED' on 2.4GHz channel 4, with a 40MHz width and channel 8 extension. The signal is not high enough to interfere with most clients, but for some of our meshed access points, the signal level is fairly close to the signal available from the mesh's host access point. Is this a common thing? Have others seen the same on their campus, and if so, what are the policies and practices that you follow? I know the signal is coming from off-campus, but I don't have assurance that it is malicious intent or that it is intended to disrupt our campus network.
