Actually, this is strange, it ONLY seems to be my wireless connection when monitoring it on en1. My ethernet card works just fine. Go figure.
So, I guess the 'bug' here is that wireless drops on OS X as soon as I capture, but I can reconnect it. Still, I'd love to know how to prevent the wireless from dropping. I thought in might have to do with permissions on my bpf devices in / dev/bpf. As it turns out, as long as the user wireshark runs under has read access, your golden.
