A display filter "wlan.data_rate" or "wlan" will make Ethereal only
showing the frames that have that field. That means only frames that have IEEE 802.11 header.
If you are capturing WLAN traffic on Windows, the captured frames may
look as Ethernet frames (no IEEE 802.11 hader). That might be one possible explanation.
Try without out the display filter and look on what protcols there are 
in the packet e.g. EthernetII/IP/TCP... or similar.

You mean I leave the filter empty? If I leave it empty I just get TCP and http packages. Btw. I use rh 8.0.
