[Winpcap-users] Some network adapter not detected

Atheros AR5B93 Wireless Network Adapter: it's the one listed as "Microsoft".
Tunnel adapters are not available thru WinPcap (I think they are exposed by the TCP/IP protocol driver, they do not correspond to real or virtual NICs)

Have a nice day

Subject: [Winpcap-users] Some network adapter not detected


Dear All,

I am using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.

I copied and pasted the codes from http://www.winpcap.org/docs/docs_411/html/group__wpcap__tut3.html to Visual C++ 2008 Express and compiled it.

It seems like the application does not detect some of my network adapters.

I tried to run "ipconfig /all" command in the command prompt, and the following are the output:


  C:\Users\user>ipconfig /all

When I run my application, the following are the output:

  Enter the interface number (1-7):


According to the application output above, the application does not detect my wireless adapter  "Atheros AR5B93 Wireless Network Adapter" together with other "tunnel" adapters. Why?

Regards,
