Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Tshark and channel settings

Date: Sun, 26 Oct 2008 22:19:46 +0100
Is there a way to change the channel settings by using Tshark?
We'll like to make some batch files to start/stop Tshark at different times
at different channels.

Well, you can use a batch file execute AirpcapConf.exe, but someone has to
change the channel and click OK.
Or, you can use a batch file to change the registry-settings 
(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE - SYSTEM - ControlSet001/CurrentControlSet - Enum - USB
- Vid_cace&pid_0002 - Device Parameters - RfFrequency). But... in this case
someone has to disconnect/reconnect the AirPcap adapter. Otherwise the settings
in the AirPcap Control Panel and the default settings in Tshark won't refresh.
The last option I can think of, is to buy 3 adapters :) and set each to a
different channel (1, 6 and 11). 

Thanx
