Since I switched from MacOS X on Power PC (a PowerBook G4) to MacOS X
on intel (a MacBook Pro) I'm facing a weird behaviour of Ethereal
0.10.14. Even though Ethereal has been compiled on the machine for
its CPU and works well on the ethernet interface, using it on the
WLAN card of the MacBook Pro makes it loose its connectivity. Note:
the intention is simply to capture IP traffic coming from that
laptop, going to the internet. No WLAN headers are needed to bee
seen. So only host originated packets. I was doing this on my
PowerBook G4 for months but on my new MacBook Pro this somehow doesnt
want to work at all. When I start capturing, I loose the WLAN symbol
right away. If I reconnect via menubar, it stays active for a few
seconds and goes offline again. The network I used uses WEP.
Anyone having a clue what could trigger this??
