Most likely 2.5g WiFi deauth. 5g fixes it and the companies just put 2.5g chips that are affected by this. Not that hard to use 5g chips.

Edit: Jamming Jamming is different. At that point use Ethernet

Police need to have the tools to detect and locate the deployment of wireless jammers. People need more visibility over the electromagnetic spectrum. It's a pretty big tell when they begin to use them.
