I'm using Wireshark 1.0.4 with a WiFi device. When I select the device in capture options panel, I cannot get the expected linktype DLT_IEEE802_11_RADIO. I know the device driver is in monitor mode and it works if I manually add a DLT_IEEE802_11_RADIO type there and choose it. But how does Wireshark/winpcap get the default type, via a OID request OID_GEN_MEDIA_SUPPORTED or OID_GEN_MEDIA_IN_USE? I believe the driver does have support on these two OIDs.
Is this a known problem or is there sth not compatible between my driver and Wireshark/winpcap? I know Wireshark calls pcap_datalink() to retrieve the media type.
