There's a current debate raging right now on the NANOG list about the ins and outs of setting up large temporary networks for things like conventions.
This one post caught my attention. Has anyone heard of a WiFi AP that will spoof neighboring networks to intentionally interfere with them, not by occupying/jamming the spectrum in a brute force way, but rather by impersonating the other network and rejecting new associations?
