If a burglar is using a wifi-jammers then the basic consumer is not going to be able to stop said burglar. Basic consumer security products aren’t designed to do anything more than keep honest people honest. It’s much harder & more expensive to prevent a determined criminal from gaining entry and would likely require rethinking housing construction from the foundation up.

Its also to help police with investigations. POE cameras and doorbells won’t have this specific weakness, they’ll probably still get in and steal all your valuables, but if they think thier wifi jammer is working you might get some footage thats useful for the cops…

Then the burglars will just upgrade to a device that sends an EMP to disable everything. If it’s worth it.

Hope they forget to put a fadaray cage around their cells.

My go to method for stealing people’s stuff is actually high altitude neutron bomb. It keeps the property intact and all you gotta do is wait for a few months for the big gamma emitting neutron activated materials to cool off.

But then if they do realise you’ve got POE devices I guess they could use a laser to overheat the external cameras I guess, or nick out your power if you don’t have them on a UPS…

I highly doubt they’ll go through that much effort. If they do notice you have POE devices, they’ll probably just go to your neighbor’s house. And that’s the whole point of this type of security, be just a bit more secure than the next person.
