Hi

I am using dlink DWL-520+ PCI wireless adapter. I have
5 systems and i do ftp transfer between the nodes. I
use ethereal 0.10.8 to capture my packets (with
promiscuous mode disabled). I tried disabling
promiscuous mode by two methods 1)by using -p
parameter in the shell prompt 2) from the ethereal gui
However i find that ethereal captures packets in
promiscuous mode and i could find that ethereal
capture contains packets from all the nodes. 

Can any one please let me how to disable the
promiscuous mode in wireless interface

Regards
Dev
