The reason I said it could be a problem with the WLAN is that if you are not
connecting to the WLAN and the WLAN is WEP-enabled, you would only see the
802.11 packets and nothing IP.  (I think)

Tyler: u were right. I changed the adapter and it
works fine.

but why would connecting to a WLAN be a problem?
Shouldn't it see the traffic coming to IP address of
the wireless adapter atleast?

Have not tried windump. Will try that.

Thanks
