FroZen_FlaMe Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 hey all :) i was just wondering if u could lend me ur help again i'm using a program called wireshark to keep an eye on my home lan network . but suddenly after restarting my computer today, i tried to use wireshark but couldn't see my NIC "my ethernet card" the weired thing is that i was workking with it normally just b4 i restart the computer after windows updated. :S also i tried cain and Able but the same problem , it can't see my network card. p.s i can use the internet normally with my ethernet card which means that there isn't any problem with the network card it self ? so do u have any idea ? thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shonen Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Now this is a bit of a long shot and I am only making an assumption here, but I would say the windows update somehow r00ted your win P-cap driver. Both cain and wireshark depend on this driver to work correctly so try installing the P-cap driver again. Or you could also use the system restore function and roll back prior to the windows update occuring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shonen Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 No probs mate thats what the comunity is for. I wouldnt stress to much about the old and slightly slow issue, I am in the same boat. I guess the saying about a brocken clock being correct at least twice a day, holds some merit. =) In any case I am glad I could solve your little boggle and help you stress less.
