Hello, I´m trying to use Ethereal 0.10.0 to sniff the
wireless frames(802.11) from my wireless network.
I have a Proxim Orinoco Gold 802.11 b/g and I have the
problem that Ethereal don´t pick these kind of frames.
I have read that Ethereal picks 802.11 frames.
I have two computers connected to an AP.
One of them is a Laptop and the other is a PC, PC has a PCI
card to comunnicate with the AP and Laptop has a Proxim
Orinoco Gold 802.11 /g card.
What I want is with my laptop, using Ethereal 0.10.0, sniff
the 802.11 frames that there are between AP and PC.
I have seen thay exists a library called LIBPCAP that works
with Etehereal, I download the Winpcap 3.0 for Windows XP(is
the OS that I use), but when I Start a capture, I capture
nothing.

Somebody can help me? If someone has reached the solution
please tell me, I´m desperate.

Thank you very much.
