RE: Wireless blocking

SSID's can still be discovered even when SSID broadcasting is disabled,
since the SSID is transmitted in each frame. Instead of resorting to
jamming the signal, why not construct a directional antenna from a
Pringles can and find out where the signal is coming from?

I believe I have an unauthorized wireless router on my network.  I have
been unable to physically find it as of yet.

Does anyone know how to find the hidden SSID and then Jam it?

Thank you.
