How to physically locate a lost WiFi access point that still sends a WiFi signal
Download Kali Linux ("Live Boot" version) from https://www.kali.org/get-kali/#kali-live
Enter the following commands:
sudo airmon-ng
--> shows a list of all WiFi devices installed and accessible to Kali Linux
sudo airmon-ng start wlan0
--> replace wlan0 with the name of the correct WiFi "interface"
sudo airmon-ng
--> the interface should now be called "wlan0mon"
sudo airodump-ng wlan0mon
--> Try to find the lost WiFi device by walking around and trying to make the `PWR` value go to 0 (zero).
