Wireshark · Ethereal-users: [Ethereal-users] Loss of wireless access on XP after installing/deinstalling Ethereal

["G. Ken Holman" <gkholman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi folks,

I tried Ethereal 0.9.2 (latest Windows download) today on XP for the first 
time and I have totally lost all my application access to my wireless 
connection.

During the first execution of Ethereal while active on my wireless 
connection, everything stopped dead from my browser.  I closed down 
Ethereal and rebooted.

I think it is obvious to me the wireless infrastructure is working, but 
none of my applications (mail, browser, etc.) can now access the wireless 
connection, so it is something between the applications and the infrastructure.

I'm guessing it is the WinPcap stuff, but have no proof.

I've uninstalled Ethereal and WinPcap to no avail.

Does this sound familiar?  I could not find any search function in the 
archives.

Thanks for any help you can be.

.................. Ken
