Ethereal with Intel 2200BG card open original image

Hi all,



My PC is running Ethereal v0.99 and WinPcap version 4.0. The program launches OK but it fails to capture packets. Has any body faced similar problems? What is the fix for this? As mentioned my PC has Intel 2200BG wireless card.



TIA

For what OS?

Under Windows XP, "Capture packets in promiscuous mode" doesn't work with the 2200BG.

I've been using Ethereal on my R51 Thinkpad under Windows XP Pro with a 2200BG for as long as I've had it and it's always worked just fine.

I'm using Ethereal 0.10.14, so maybe something has changed with v

0.99.

The latest version is 0.99.5

I know; the version I have now does what I need.

Why go to strangers?

It is no longer called ethereal.

Unchecking the "capture in promiscuous mode" did the trick.

Thanks.
