Thanks Andreas

I've installed your build on my MacBook Pro and I'm seeing local traffic on 'en1', and broadcasts on 'wlt1', but no other network else.  The config for en1 is set to promiscuous, and checking 'ifconfig en1' reveals that the PROMISC flag is set -- it just doesn't seem to make any difference.

Regards,

David

the wireless issue on the MacBook Pro have been solved
You need an updated libpcap version.

the installer I put at http://www.finkconsulting.com/page7  has this fix.

Hi

I was hoping for a recommendation for the best wireless card to use  
with Wireshark on Linux.  I've looked through the various cards and  
chipsets on the wireless wiki section, but there seems to be so clear  
consensus as to which is the best option.

Alternatively, I have a MacBookPro which I was originally intending  
to use, but I read that there are existing issues in regards to  
wireless use.  I imagine this is still the case.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

David
