At my place of business, non-authorized wifi routers and hotspots routinely prevent people from accessing our network. I haven't seen it interfere with someone already connected, but it is common that it interferes with the handshake between the laptop and router at startup, thus disabling network logon. In the particular area that suffers this issue often, we've reverted to extra good old fashioned network drops.
in most high end secure data centers, there are actual scanners checking for "rogue" AP(hotspots) within 30 seconds of firing one up, an alert goes through the system and a person with a directional antenna, comes and finds you and makes you disable it immediately.
people probably still think we are making this up
