Is IPW2200 monitoring FW still broken?
I miss huge amounts of packets when I try to monitor
some traffic.
I'm using current wireless-2.6 + v3.0 firmware.
Using two antennas.
What type of frames? Data or management & control?
If you use wireshark to capture, you can't update the packet capture
window or you'll lose packets; but you should be able to get them all if
you're doing a tethereal > somefile or if you turn off the update of the
main window.
I'm not sure if it can capture control frames or not. I seem to recall
it getting some ACK frames but I don't think it was passing up all of
them, or if it ever passed up the CTS frames. But you should be getting
the bulk of the data frames.
Yi -- do you recall what the ipw2200 firmware would pass up?
