I am running Ethereal 0.8.18/WinPcap 2.1 on Windows 2000 SP2 . I have a Xircom Real Port RE100 PCMCIA NIC in an IBM ThinkPad A20m.
 
Ethereal works but the NIC does not appear to be in promiscuous mode. I can only see broadcasts and traffic to or from my laptop. I am pretty sure that the Xircom card supports promiscuous mode. I am not on a switched network.
 
If anyone has any ideas of how to troubleshoot this I'd appreciate hearing from you.
 
Thanks
