Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] Capturing 802.11 RSSI and TX Rate Values Using Ubuntu Linu

     Yes, I was capturing on wlan0. I created the monitor (using wlan0
instead of wmaster0 in the first command, though) and it seemed to
capture RSSI and TX rate as desired.
     ifconfig -a has eth0, lo, mon0, pan0, wlan0, and wmaster0, with much
information about these.

Thanks,
Tal
