I read the http://www.ethereal.com/faq.html#q5.22
I run Ethereal on windowXP.
But cisco Aironet cards can be supported Linux and FreeBSD.
Also, I have been tried WinDump.
I can't succeed on cisco Aironet card neither.
So, I can't capture a IP packet by Ethereal or WinDump on windowXP.
Anyone knows how to capture IP packet with cisco Aironet card on
windowXP ?
Thanks in advance.

Are you doing the Web surfing on the machine running Ethereal, or on
another machine?
If you're doing the Web surfing on another machine (so that the traffic
isn't sent from, or do, the machine with the Cisco adapter), that's
unlikely to work unless the machine running Ethereal is running Linux or
FreeBSD, and you have the right versions of the driver for the Cisco
adapter:

If you're doing the Web surfing on the machine running Ethereal, that's
probably a driver problem. Try using WinDump:

on the same adapter; if you still don't see the traffic, report that to
the WinPcap developers:

although, if it's a driver problem, there's probably nothing they can do
about it.
