Hi
I am using Ethereal for the 1st time on a wireless
network. I have got it working on the ethernet.
However on the wireless network I am able to only
capture packets that are being sent/recvd by me (not
even broadcasts from other nodes). I am using Ubuntu
and my wireless card is Intel 2200 series. I have set
the card on monitor mode and logged in as root. I
first tried it by downloading the source and compiling
it. And again by using the binary package itself. I
have a Cable Internet connection which goes to a
Netgear Wireless router(802.11a/b/g) to which I am
connected.i know for sure it will not work on Windows
because monitor mode is not supported there, but then
i read in the forum that it works on linux though. I
have tried with the promiscuous mode being off and on.
Can you tell me why I am unable to capture packets
sent from other nodes in my network?
Thanks in advance
Sumeet
