Hi Kam,
how do you capture data with WinXp and Wireshark?
I have wireshark in my laptop but I not capture data with my card (Intel
Pro/Wireless 2915ABG). My laptop is Centrino technology.
Thank's for tour help.

Sorry, but I didn't capture data on WinXP with Wireshark: I only
examined the data on the platform. I used a Thinkpad Laptop running
Ubuntu linux to capture the data (via tcpdump) using a Wi-Fi PC-Card.
I then transferred the capture file to a WinXP PC to examine the
capture with Wireshark.
(And if you're wondering about this strange arrangement, it is because
I am running an older version of Ubuntu (6.06) that does not appear to
have a binary Wireshark package available.)
Anyway, back to my question: is decrypting the WPA group keys a
problem in Wireshark? If yes, I can file some bug reports (one for
WPA, one for WPA-2 as the group key decryption issue is slightly
different in each case) with sample captures.
