To receive packets, use one of the cards supported by WinPcap (there's a list of cards at http://home.comcast.net/~jay.deboer/airsnare/supported.htm) and the normal capture procedure (you can start from one of the samples in the developer's pack). You will see Ethernet frames, since 802.11 is still not supported natively by Windows kernels and therefore is exported as a fake Ethernet. I've never tried to send packets, but a user reported that if you build Ethernet frames, they will be converted to 802.11 and sent to the network.
Loris > Hi friens, > > I want to write a program (On windows XP using Visual C++) that captures 802.11 b/g raw frame. I also want to directly write to the 802.11 b/g NIC card to do broadcast in my local wireless LAN. So, can any body please tell me whether this functionality can be achieved using the WINPCAP.LIB package. If yes, is there any sample on the PACP website or any of you have it. > If WINPCAP cannot do this, is there any other package available to this on windows XP.I want it for academic purpose.
