 I"m trying to use madwifi in monitor mode with ethereal reading and
 decoding a wep encoded session. I plug the wep key into evolution, but
 it doesn"t decrypt the encrypted traffic. Just looking through the
 802.11 headers, I"m suspicious that its not even finding the right key #
 in the traffic.
 
 I"m running on Fedora Core 3. Do I need some patches? Perhaps ethereal
 is expecting a prism not a atheros and that's throwing off the decoding?
