Actually, this is strange,
it ONLY seems to be my wireless connection when monitoring it on en1.
My ethernet card works just fine. Go figure.
So, I guess the 'bug' here is that wireless drops on OS X as soon as
I capture, but I can reconnect it.
Still, I'd love to know how to prevent the wireless from dropping. I
thought in might have to do with permissions on my bpf devices in /
dev/bpf. As it turns out, as long as the user wireshark runs under
has read access, your golden.
Weird.

Basically:
On OS X Tiger, when I run wireshark as soon as I start capturing
packets it knocks out my connection.
As mentioned in the article, I can re-connect my wireless connection
and get the capture going again.
Your wireless connection is on en0?
Or your *wired* Ethernet connection on en0 drops?
(Note that, in OS X, not all adapters with names beginning with "en"
are necessarily Ethernet adapters - 802.11 adapters, in particular,
also have names beginning with "en".)
