  • does Wireshark freeze immediately after you start the capture or only when the first frame arrives?

  • what happens if you run tshark -i interface1 -i interface2 -i interface3 ... from command line, instead of Wireshark?

  • what happens if you run dumpcap -i interface1 -i interface2 -i interface3 ... -w output_file.pcapng from command line, instead of Wireshark?

  • as 2.0.1 seems to me too fresh to be part of some distribution, can you try the same with the most current one - 2.0.3?
