Dennis, I think you are taking this to literal..... I have the right to detect 
and prohibit any wireless access point that is “connected” to my network. I do 
not have the right to bar an access point that is within my area of control 
from operating as long as it is not using my network for connectivity.

The hotel was trying to prevent guest and other business from using access 
points that were NOT connected to their network and thus avoiding paying them a 
fee.

Big difference here.

Yep, you do not control the airwaves in your business, therefor you cannot 
interfere with any “access point” that conforms with Part-15.

a public place such as a hotel chain vs my private business where I needed to 
be able to control the wifi and keep things like wifi pineapples from snooping 
on my business would be not allowed?

Note that many of these systems (rather rogue AP prevention) have been deemed 
illegal by the FCC, a hotel chain was fined 600k I think due to it.

I have a customer that is being required to get rogue access point detection.  
not a one time thing but ongoing detection.  What products have people used.
