Maybe I should acquire a wifi dongle that is known to work perfectly... you know any?

And that is a good question... I have no idea... I have read a lot of issues with the broadcom wireless adaptors and monitor mode... not sure its an issue with promiscuous mode. It dosent seem to complain in wireshark when I enable it.

Oh I see I created it in the wrong category!

Hey guys... So I have tried wireshark through linux and windows platform without luck... I'm trying to capture the WIFI http traffic on my own wireless network at home, but without luck... I have changed the wifi interface so it listens on the same channel as the router is using but I only pickup the traffic between the router and the computer running wireshark. The interface is running in promiscuous mode.. Any ideas what I could do? When I use linux I used airmon-ng to enable monitor mode but I wasent able to set the channel as it said -1 all the time.... thats why im trying the windows way at the moment... /Ronnie
