<div> <font size="2"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yes - it's wireless traffic I am looking at. Atheros AR9285 is the wireless adapater, but still no luck. I did check out those two links, but they didn't offer any solutions yet. Like David Trout mentioned, the micro-logix links do not work, so I couldn't look at either of those. <br>

<br>
I've got no problems with this adapter:<br>
Atheros AR8121/AR8113/AR8114 PCI-E Ethernet Controller(NDIS6.20)<br>
<br>
64-bit Windows Server 2008 R2<br>
wireshark: Version 1.3.3-SVN-31855<br>
WinPcap version 4.1.1<br>

Are you trying to capture wireless traffic in promiscuous mode?<br>
If so, please take a look at WinPcap FAQ and Wireshark Wiki:<br>
