Actually... I think it should be noted that : The use of an NDIS wrapper may in some instances not allow you to run some of the security tools you are trying to employ. Tools such as Kismet ( I believe ) rely on native Linux drivers. We have run across this problem / issue in the past.

You have to use a NDISWrapper which strips the windows drivers into something linux card read.
