I am working on a kernel module that calls dev_add_pack() to register for 802_2 packets by setting the wifi interface into monitor mode.
I am using both ath9k and ath5k devices. For the ath9k device, I was receiving all the packets, while with the ath5k device I was only seeing broadcast packets. I started seeing all the packets from the ath5k device when I used ifconfig to set the monitoring wifi interface into promiscuous mode. I am not using libpcap. Is this considered a bug or should I need to set the interface to promiscuous mode? Thank you,
