Hi, managed to make wireshark work with my new macbook air 11" with OS X 10.7.1 Lion. I can correctly see the network interface named en0 in the list of capture devices, however, when I start the packet sniffing on my own network to testing it, I only receive informations from my own computer's IP address. How can i fix this? Is there any way? Sorry for my ignorance, but I'm new to Wireshark and was doing just so experiments. Regards asked 23 Jan '12, 04:15  codemark |
One Answer:
As it's a MacBook Air, If you want to capture other traffic on your wireless network, you need to put it in monitor mode. Wireshark should have a checkbox for monitor mode in the dialog box that pops up if you select "Options" from the "Capture" menu and then try to capture on answered 23 Jan '12, 15:09  Guy Harris ♦♦ |
