Wireshark · Ethereal-users: [Ethereal-users] Packets between WAP and PCMCIA

["CYL1" <cyl1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

 

Is there any way to catch all the packets or number of packets that were transmitted from/to a wireless pc card and a wireless access point?

 

My Ethereal version is 0.9.7 with gtk+1.3, glib1.3.2, libz1.1.4, windows version on my Win2000 laptop. My wireless access point and pc card are both Linksys. The wap is connected to my Linksys 4port Router. I could catch all packet between my pc card and the router but not packets between the wap and my pc card.

 

I have been trying to get all packets between one wireless pc card and a wireless access point but nevet got any packets in the view, unless I ping the access point with its ip or run a snmp program with the access point. I thought I should be able to catch all the mackets that were transmitted from/to the wireless access point and my wireless pc card.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.
