8. An apparatus for adaptively controlling an antenna pattern of a wireless network device in a packet-switched wireless communications network, the apparatus comprising:

  • first and second antenna elements each receiving an electromagnetic signal from a source over the packet-switched network and forming a receive antenna pattern;

    a verification module, in communication with the antenna elements, receiving the signal from the antenna elements and verifying whether the source of the signal is an intended or unintended source; and

    a controller in communication with at least one of the antenna elements and with the verification module to adaptively control the receive antenna pattern in response to a determination that the source of the electromagnetic signal is an unintended source.
