I've sniffed a few WLANS - for testing purposes only of course - never
recall having any problems with associations.  I have Ethereal on a
windoze laptop I'll play with later.  Bottom line is it's not an nTop
thing.  To make sure nTop is working correctly generate traffic to/from
the system nTop is running on through the wireless NIC - nTop should see
it.  If not you have another problem.

Libpcap won't work, because the NIC is wireless...this feature must be
supported in the drivers for wireless cards.

You need the libpcap equivalent for windows (google for winpcap)
It will do promiscuous (sp?) mode on the NIC

My understanding - given the little experience I have with a popular
sniffing tool - was that Windows won't do promiscuous mode..or not
"real" promiscuous mode (whatever "real" means in that context).
