Sorry Felipe. Basically the core question is 'how to find rouge access points'. For example, if an end user plugs in a linksys wireless router under their desk, how do you detect it? Expanding on the question, is that usually from what I've seen, just scanning with nmap or something might not pick it up if the AP is configured not to respond to pings, and doesn't have ports open, etc. And without knowing the encryption password, sniffing wireless traffic seems out of the question too. Simply scanning with something like kismet will only tell you that there's an AP in the area, but you don't know if it's an AP plugged into your network, or if it's another companies AP. The link that was posted about sniffing the encrypted wireless traffic for netbios requests that aren't encrypted seems interesting. Something I'll try.
