Each column of the "Capture" area of the Capture Options page has an associated
pop-up help tip. If you hover the mouse in the "Capture Filter" column, the
following help is displayed, which has nothing to do with capture filters:
"Usually a Wi-Fi adapter will, even in promiscuous mode, only capture the
traffic on the BSS to which it's associated. If you want to capture all traffic
that the Wi-Fi adapter can 'receive', mark this option.In order to see IEEE
802.11 headers or to see radio information for captured packets,it might be
necessary to turn this option on."
"Note that, in monitor mode, the adapter might disassociate from the network to
which it's associated. mode"
The build information is from the PortableApps version 1.8.6, but this same
behavior occurs in the non-PortableApps version and in the current development
version as of March 25, 2013.
