Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Missing Interface Name on Windows Vista forwireshark
I think that those interfaces are exported as dialup connections. Under
Vista WinPcap does *not* support dialup-like interfaces.
Can you please post the output of ipconfig -a?
Thanks

forwireshark
Hi,
I intend to use Wireshark to capture packets on a network interface that
is basically a USB connected mobile device, the latter acts as a modem.
The Operating System I am using is Windows Vista.
When I open the Wireshark Capture option it does not list the network
interface connected to the Mobile device and hence I cannot capture any
packets on that specific interface.
When I do an ipconfig –a option on the Command prompt I can see a IP
address allocated to my workstation with some other requisite entries. I
can even browse through on the web whilst connected through the modem..
Can someone suggest a way in which I can see the network Interface in my
capture Screen of wireshark on Windows Vista?
Has anyone else encountered this problem earlier or have I missed out on
anything?
This problem definitely does not arise when using Wireshark on Windows XP.
I have encountered this problem using 2 different mobile devices Samsung
and Nokia.
Regards,
Sameer
