Try not using "List available capture interfaces" - capture on en0 for wired captures and en1 for wireless captures. Also, don't use the drop-down list to select an interface in the capture options window - just type en0 or en1. That might help. This is a known problem - or, rather, a consequence of several known problems. Some can be fixed in libpcap (I'll look at that), some in Wireshark (I'll look at that - but those would also need the libpcap fix, meaning Apple would have to pick that fix up for the system libpcap or you'd have to somehow get a version of Wireshark built with a fixed version), and some in the driver for the wireless adapter (somebody in the group at Apple that does AirPort adapter software would have to look at that). _______________________________________________ Wireshark-users mailing list Wireshark-users@wireshark.org http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-users
