Subject: Capturing 802.11 RSSI and TX Rate Values Using Ubuntu Linux

Hi,
I am new to Wireshark. I need to capture RSSI values from an 802.11
network using an Ubuntu Linux 8.10 PC. I have added the columns in
the user interface, but no values are displaying. Perhaps I have the
incorrect driver (currently I am using iwlagn). Can anyone provide a
hint?
Also, I can apparently use the 802.11 connection and capture packets
at the same time. With other sniffers I have used this was not
possible. Is this supposed to be possible with Wireshark, or is this
part of the problem in my setup?
I really appreciate any help in advance. Happy holidays!
Thanks,
Tal
