It's unfortunate that someone deliberately comes up with something like
this that adds a lot of junk to a band that's already full of sources of
interference. Then there's that 2.4 ghz source you have in your kitchen
or office breakroom. I get my internet
connection wirelessly via the library across the street. My connection
dies whenever I use the microwave. While I'm waiting on my burrito to
cook, I can scan for available networks but won't find any.
Besides cordless phones, what sources of interference are there to
802.11n networks?

Agreed, I see stupid hp devices even in enterprise printers they
broadcast adhoc 802.11. Really annoying they make that default, but
they treat wifi like bluetooth, and in fact i think it's because of
the wifi pan standard being built into things like mice. Go figure,
by HP. Only a win7 feature, uses a parasitic virtual device to tap
it, and from reviews, it seems unreliable as hell.
Bad part is, these show up in enterprise wireless systems like Cisco
Wireless Lan Controllers as rogues, can/will attempt to "mitigate"
them via a rf ddos as a policy. It's simply how they deal with
security is many installations.
Someones gonna buy a wifi mouse and wonder why their mouse never quite
works right, probably just go chew on the poor help desk person. Not
to mention it's just more interference to deal with in an enterprise
wireless system in an already crowded 2.4ghz spectrum. Nothing really
wrong with bluetooth, I don't know what they're trying to fix.
I'm curious to see what happens if the standard becomes more prevalent.
