And I would like to get an idea of the time around which the 802.11n
protocol will be fully and finally specified. :-)
please give me a definite time frame or the relase in which it is
targeted
As others have indicated, we can't give you that, as it doesn't exist.
and one question i have been an user of ethereal for quite some time
now,
since its remeaned to wireshark what are the components one needs to
install as a prerequisite for sniffing .
is it only the latest winpcap
The set of components were not changed by the name changed, and
weren't changed by newer releases (as you said "winpcap", you're
presumably using Windows; the Windows installer includes the
additional libraries Wireshark needs), except that recent releases (I
forget whether this happened before the name change or not) might need
a component called "ntoskrnl.exe" or "ntmpkrnl.exe" - i.e., recent
releases might not run on Windows 95/98/Me, they might only run on NT
4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and maybe Vista.
