Hello! It turns out ath5k doesn't receive multicast packets while in monitor mode. Multicast packets are only received on the interface if it's set to a promiscuous or allmulti mode of if the multicast address I need is added by "ip maddr add". Wireshark puts interfaces in promiscuous mode, but some utility I wrote wasn't doing that, so it could not capture multicast packets with ath5k. Do we have any standard whether multicast filtering is allowed in monitor mode? Should I fix ath5k or the userspace program? -- Regards, Pavel Roskin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
