Title: [Wireshark-users] Linksys WPC 54g promiscuous capture on XP-sp2
I've had both ethereal and Wireshark installed on the same XP
machine. I don't remember if it was SP2 or not. I didn't use both -
I just used Wireshark.
Did you try doing a clean
un-install of both programs then attempting a re-install of wireshark? >From my
experience I found that both programs can't exist in the same space, you can
either have one or the other....on the Microsoft platform anyhow, try that and
see how it goes, guessing it will probably work and you'll be able to capture
again.

54g promiscuous capture on XP-sp2
I'd been using Ethereal on my laptop using XP Pro-sp2
and a
Linksys WPC54g v.1 (and a v.1.2 card) for quite
some time. I never had any
issues about capturing in
promiscuous mode.
I hadn't used for a while, and
then found the
Wireshark had superseded Ethereal, so I downloaded
WinPCAP
4.02 and Wireshark.
However, I now cannot capture in promiscuous
mode.
I'm using XP Pro-sp2 and I've tried every combination
using the
following:
WPC54g v.1
WPC54g v.1.2
Card driver v.3.3
Card driver
v.3.6
Card driver v.4.1
WinPCAP v.3.1
WinPCAP v.4.0.2
I've also
tried using tshark.exe and windump.exe to
capture, to no avail.
Does
anyone have an idea what might be causing this,
especially as I used to have
no problems.
I'm wondering if MS have broken promiscuous capture
as
the configuration that used to work on another Laptop
in our office
appears to have stopped working too.
Thanks in
advance,
John
