Hello.
This issue with DLT_IEEE802_11_RADIO and the frame being offset by 4
octets may have something in common with another issue:

Yes. That means you have a Radiotap header.
About the rssi values I managed to get them by teaching myself
Hi Denis.
In deed I've seen different output from the same code. As if the field's
position change upon different power runs. For example, one time I
successfuly got packet type, subtype and rssi values coherent with distance.
Some other run of the same code, but I'd power cycled the

Indeed I've seen a radiotap_iterator function in radiotap headers. But the
function logic was a little heavy for a 400mhz MIPS CPU. No?
Maybe *that* iteration logic is heavy, but some iteration logic is a
*requirement*,
Some drivers definitely change the format of the radiotap packets on the fly in
the same stream. As Guy says, you need to look at the bit field in the header
and parse the complex header. If all you care about is the dot11 header you can
just skip the header using the length field.

And you can probably unroll the iteration loop into something such as
/* use appropriate 8-bit/16-bit/32-bit unsigned types here */
struct ieee80211_radiotap_header {
u_int8_tit_version; /* set to 0 */
u_int8_tit_pad;
u_int16_t it_len; /*

Oops, that should be
