HI,

Thank you for creating this patch. Better attach it to a bugzilla report, so it won't get lost. See http://wiki.wireshark.org/Development/PatchHandling for the current procedure.

Thanx,
Jaap

Howdy, folks!

The attached patch (against r23226) does three things:

1) Updates the capture_wlancap() function to properly handle the varying lengths of the different frame formats properly. 2) Minor tweaks to the dissector to bring it in line with the latest specs.
3) Lastly, don't try to decode newer versions of the header.

In the next day or so, I'll be following up with another patch that adds support for a new rev of the avs_wlancap header -- but I wanted to get this out first.

Thanks!
