Hi,

 

I tried to capture wireless packets using the basic_dump example. I could
capture Ethernet packet. Even though it is detecting my wireless driver it
is not displaying any result.

 

I got this result when I tried with a NETGEAR WAG511 PC card.

 

1. \Device\NPF_GenericDialupAdapter (Generic dialup adapter)

2. \Device\NPF_{71FFDFA2-557E-48C7-AE0E-F7F046395F27} (NETGEAR WAG511
802.11a/b/

g Dual Band Wireless PC Card)

3. \Device\NPF_{345D2B1C-EAEB-437B-AB9A-D848EAEF7DEA} (NDIS 5.0 driver

                                                        )

Enter the interface number (1-3):2

 

listening on NETGEAR WAG511 802.11a/b/g Dual Band Wireless PC Card...

 

how to capture data from a wireless card?

 

Regards,

vimal
