Are you sure packets are actually transmitted on the wire/wireless and not just 
routed internally by the IP stack?

  Subject: [Wireshark-users] Capturing packets between 2 physical interfacesin 
same machine


  Hi-

  I just installed Wireshark version 0.99.5 on Windows XP.

  My laptop has 2 interfaces - ethernet & wireless LAN. I want to capture 
packets sent between the 2 interfaces. I tried capture on either interface with 
default settings (promiscuous on), but I see only packets received from other 
hosts. 

  I could understand that packets sent between loopback addresses cannot be 
captured. But, I was hoping that capture between multiple physical interfaces 
would work. Any idea why this does not work?

  Regards,
  Nagaraj
