Yep, that'd be an alternative.

Thankfully some enterprise equipment (I can only speak of Meraki access points) can detect such attacks. So, you could localize (to a degree) where such an attack was coming from based on the AP locations.

I do IT for a few hotels and I've never found this feature useful. While I agree it's useful to be able to control RF noise (by annoying someone enough with the deauth packets that they turn off their tethering), it's difficult to differentiate between nearby businesses and homes vs. someone tethering on-site.

There are two approaches for hotel Wifi.

One is to make a network that's so good people will pay to use it.

The other is to make a network that's average, but intentionally make other networks worse, so that people will pay to use yours.

Since you're reading HN, I imagine your strategy is the first. Hence, you don't see the need to interfere with other users of the spectrum.
