Hi,
I apologize if I missed something obvious from prior discussions or in the FAQ.
I have just set up a new notebook to be a WLAN sniffer. I am running FreeBSD 4.6-RELEASE and have: 

# ethereal -v
ethereal 0.9.3, with GTK+ 1.2.10, with GLib 1.2.10, with libpcap 0.6,
with libz 1.1.3, with UCD SNMP 4.2.5

My Aironet 350 has:

Hardware revision 00:22
Software revision 04:25
When attempting to capture packets in Monitor Mode I receive the following error: 

Unable to parse filter string (Unknown data link type 105).

Is this a libpcap problem?  How do I fix this?

Thanks,

Aron
