Hi,

I am interested in capturing 802.11 management frames
in a windows PC. Is that Possible??

 I can capture the same in My linux box!! In windows
2k with Proxim(Orinico) Card I am able to see the
Packets.. but they are shown as ARP,UDP,etc.  not as
IEEE 802.11. I had read the FAQ, which says it depends
on the driver and the card.. 

Do anyone captured the raw 802.11 packet before (in
windows)?? If so what is the card and driver I have to
use??

Your help is highly appreciated.

Thanks,
mohan

P.S. I use ethereal 10.2 and WinPCAP 3.0

Cheers,
Mohan
