HI
I'm trying to use libpcap to build a software bridge usingĀ  lan card and wifi card I open both cards using 
pcap_open_live(). Then I start two threads, each collecting frames on one of the card using pcap_next_ex() and then 
thread sending the frame using pcap_sendpacket(). Every thing seems fine but when i try to ping from my wifi card the 
ethernet card of some other machine. the wifi card gets RARP (<IP> is at <MAC Adress>) but it does not generate the 
echo request
