Wireless packet logging?I would like to log the wireless packets exchanged so I can see exactly why
I sometimes fail to connect to my wireless access point. I am running Windows XP with a D-Link PCI wireless card. Is there some way to do this? Is this this negotiation handled by the card, the driver, or the OS? Hi
