Thank you guys, I already have something working. I installed an Ubuntu
12.04 VM, then I added airmon-ng and wireshark and I'm already able to
capture some traffic with another USB adapter I have (TP-Link WN821N).

This 2 minutes video shows it all:

I will check the Backtrack option.

Platform)

Hello,

Try Backtrack R5 and an Edimax EW-7722UND USB adapter.

Backtrack is a Linux based (Ubuntu) distro with pre installed pen testing
tools. I run a copy in VMWare Player on my Windows laptop which allows Linux
to access the USB Adapter.

Primarily Airodump-ng and Airmon-ng can be used to capture 802.11 packets. 
These can then be opened in wireshark etc.
Another useful tool included is airdecap for decoding WPA/WPA2 encrypted
packets.

The Dlink you have adapter will probably also work so you may get 80211
packet capturing for "free".

Cheers

Andy

Hello guys,

This is my first post on this list.

I want to learn a bit more about the 802.11 protocol and to do that I have
OmniPeek 6.8.2 Demo and I purchased one USB supported adapter (the D-Link
DWA-160).

But the Demo has many limitations and I'm thinking about alternatives.

The best I found (affordable) was Airpcap classic:

hp

What do you guys use in your lab preparation or on your work ? I want to be
able to use my Windows 7 x64 laptop, I know that Linux is much better and
has many options but it's not what I want.


Thanks.
