You will need an esp8266 device like a NodeMCU. These start from £5 on Amazon.
And the software from https://github.com/SpacehuhnTech/esp8266_deauther
So what is a WiFi deauther, in it's simplest terms you can connect it to a wireless network you own, and disconnect everything connected to it by sending deauthenticate requests to the access point.
This is a vulnerability from 2009 that the WiFi Alliance fixed with 802.11w but not many manufacturers have implemented.
I'm currently testing devices it works against, found a few surprises.
