Chin,
A normal wireless access point bridges 802.3 (wired) to 802.11 (wireless).
Thanks to this bridge wireshark see both wiresless clients and wired
clients via the WAP.
I can think off two ways to get rid off the MAC's from wired cards.
One unplug the WAP from your wired network.
OR
Use a router.
With a router all your wired MAC will be hidden behind the MAC off the router.
Just a simple router would do.
Hope its helps,
Yorian
