Handshake capture only grabbing half the packets

Just got my Mark 7 and got the setup done. I am upgraded to 1.02. I do a 30 second scan and find my test AP SSID. Verify the MAC matches the expected AP. I can see my test client as a child of that AP in the list view as expected. I then turn on Capture Handshake for that AP. Then deauth my test client, which it DOES kick it off properly. The client reconnects.

I wait awhile for the handshake to show up in the gui, which says it's a partial. I download the capture and open in wireshark and indeed it says it has 2/4 packets. I have repeated this test several times and get the same thing each time.

Any idea what's going on?

Is it possible one side or the other is too far away from your Pineapple? If so, you won't be able to see packets for that device...

I got my mark7 a couple of weeks ago and it does take awhile to get handshakes but I am getting them. I thought it was broke too, but left it on and came back and had two full. I have gotten a part handshake and then in the next 15 mins get the full one. Also remember some devices may stay on the network for awhile before they jump off and on for you to capture the handshake.

Devices were quite close to each other, all within 25 feet with only 1 drywall wall in between. I will try letting the pineapple roll longer and see what it comes up with, as all my tests were very "short", just a few minutes before I would turn off the function.
