Look at the principles to make a gateway.
Using Saidar, you make two places identical. If you can make the area you defend vibrate ever so slightly, not noticeable to living creatures, but meaningful for a gateway, you can render it impossible to make two places identical, and gateway can't form.
Using Saidin, you try to pull two places together. If one place is always moving just so slightly, there is a tiny gap and a gateway can't form.
A radio jammer in the modern context does not seem equivalent to either a ward or an active radar detecting incoming gateway.

Both options can be valid, but here's why you MUST have the ward...

I think there's some evidence in favor of the wards idea you are all missing.

there's no indication that the gateway isn't almost on top of a city

It's definitely possible that there can be a ward to detect a gateway opening.

We know that, for e.g., Sammael could detect the location of a Gateway

i think an automatic weave would be too complicated to cover any reasonable area.

I don't think you need to travel to the Gateway to disrupt it if the ward notifies you of location

I believe that you cannot make a ward completely preventing Traveling.
