Sorry I didn´t make this clear before: I can't even start a capture, the
error rises as soon as I press Start.
By the way, because the capture gets aborted at the very beggining, a second
message windows appears (along with the one that contains the original
message reported in this mails);
"
No packets captured!
As no data was captured, closing the temporary capture file!
Help about capturing can be found at:
http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup
Wireless (Wi-Fi/WLAN):
Try to switch off promiscuous mode in the Capture Options!
"
I do not understand why it suggests to do something with the Wireless
interface (which I have turned off) if I am trying to capture with the LAN
interface...
This is all I have for now.
Thanks !
