I have two operating systems on a single disk to windows 7 and windows xp is the way the card is atheros ar5007eg on Windows 7 without a problem and the promiscuous mode for xp failed to set hardware filter to promiscuous mode, why is that? asked 15 Jun '11, 12:29  tomulusss edited 16 Jun '11, 11:57  Guy Harris ♦♦ |
One Answer:
It's probably because either the driver on the Windows XP system doesn't support promiscuous mode or the Wi-Fi mechanisms in Windows XP don't support promiscuous mode on Wi-Fi adapters. (The first suggestion could also be a consequence of the second suggestion.) answered 16 Jun '11, 11:56 Guy Harris ♦♦ edited 16 Jun '11, 11:57 |
