Your goal here is to block the unauthorized wlans in an area without
obliterating the radio space for other protocols or devices.  So, you
want to use a protocol attack.  The following link contains instructions
on how to develop a VOID11 bomb, a capable WLAN dampener for a given
wlan card's transmission radius.

Hi

Do you eventualy know about some options to jam or block certain or unsecured access points?
The point is, no matter what network security measurements are taken, if an access point or a client with an 
unsecured connections appears, it is an optimal possibility to override each security measurement, opening a backdoor.
Since no one can be forced to secure his/her connection (WLAN can also come from outside where even policies cannot 
be applied) i look for a possibility to jam the AP for a certain area. 
Of course, another possibility can be to go to each workstation and disable or secure its wireless NIC, which will 
most likely be an overhead.
Thank you in advance for your feedback.


cheers!
