Yes, but that doesn't mean they can be supported on Windows.

That means it's a WinPcap problem, so, as my previous mail to you said,
you should report the problem to the WinPcap developers:
http://winpcap.polito.it/contact.htm
although, if it's a driver problem, there's probably nothing they can do
about it.

I don't. Perhaps the WinPcap developers do, but perhaps nobody does -
perhaps it's not even possible with WinPcap-based applications such as
Ethereal.
It might be possible with commercial sniffers such as Sniffer Wireless
from Network Associates:
http://www.sniffer.com/
or AiroPeek from Wildpackets:
http://www.wildpackets.com/
but, if it is possible, that's because they've written their own Windows
drivers for the various wireless networking cards. I don't have the
time or expertise with either NDIS and Windows networking *OR* with the
hardware for those wireless cards to write a driver, and certainly don't
have the time to support a driver even if I could write one; I suspect
few if any other Ethereal or WinPcap developers have the time or
expertise either.
