Is there a recommended way (Wireshark or other) to capture "unlicensed
900 MHz local area network" (17,600 bps) packets?
Well, the *first* think you'd need would be hardware capable of
capturing those packets that you could attach to the computer you're
using and that has a driver for the OS you're using. Unfortunately, I
don't know what hardware that would be.
Then there might have to be support added to libpcap/WinPcap to
support that hardware, if the driver doesn't plug it into the OS as a
regular network interface.
That would probably require a new link-layer type value assigned to
whatever link-layer header would be supplied by libpcap/WinPcap, and
that would, in turn, require support to be added to Wireshark to
dissect those packets.
