probably the driver (provided by the card manufacturer) doesn't. WinPcap just
sends a request to the NIC driver to enable promiscuous mode. It's entirely
possible that the NIC driver returns success, but fails to deliver all the
packets anyway.</FONT></DIV>

previous problem by adding static MAC Address in arp talble.

in promiscusous mode my wifi card is DWLG122(D link) and it
support promiscuous mode when i see the log the card goes into
promiscuous mode but it is not capturing packets that are not
destined to it. Any help in this regard i have open the card
using pcap_open_live(). I am using fedora 7<BR><BR>
