Hi All,

I've installed WinPcap 3.0 and ethereal-0.9.14.  Am running WinXP Pro on
a Fujitsu S2010 laptop, using an Intersil PRISM wireless adapter to
capture packets.

Two problems:
1. After correctly assigning the Intersil PRISM wireless interface, 
   the capture appears to launch correctly, and the "Running" dialog
   box starts counting time.  But no packets are captured.
2. After rebooting, when I next log into XP, all wireless connectivity
   (via PRISM adapter) is wedged.
   a. If I uninstall either ethereal-0.9.14 or WinPcap and reboot, 
      wireless connectivity returns.

Anyone know what to do?

Thanks,
John
