Subject: [Winpcap-users] I use the winpcap 4.0 in vista has a terrible BUG!!
Dear development team:
I am a user of winpcap, now I install winpcap4.0 in Vista Ultimate.
I use wireless adapter: DWA-110 USB Adapter.
the wireless adapter driver version: NDIS6.0
I download winpcap4.0 Developer's pack and I rebuild the iflist project with VC++ 6.0.(No error, No warnning).
I use NDIS6.0 driver for this wireless adapter.
I exeute iflist.exe. It's appear a error --> the description of this adapter is catch Error, but the instanceID is OK.
The Adapter's description will show "microsoft".(It's wrong)
When I use NDIS5.x Driver for this adapter, the iflist.exe work properly.
Is the packet.dll not for NDIS6.0 driver??
Packet.dll is not involved in the NDIS stuff, it's just a user level DLL that communicates with npf.sys, which is an NDIS 5.x protocol driver. There shouldn't be any problem with an NDIS 5.x protocol driver on top of a NDIS 6.0 miniport (NDIS should provide the proper thunking to convert between 5.x and 6.0) but it doesn't seem so.
I have a wireless card that should have an NDIS 6.0 miniport (not the dlink usb one, it's a dlink cardbus one with atheros chipset), i'll try to see if I can replicate a similar problem with what I have. In the meantime, can you try using the tracing version of packet.dll available at http://www.winpcap.org/bugs.htm and send me the generated winpcap_debug.txt file? Thanks!
Have a nice day
GV
