how come 22 bytes offset with no Qos ?
in the case both are not set (TO DS and From DS ) then Address 1 is
destination , adress 2 is source and address 3 is bssid , so there are
18bytes of addresses,

There are 18 bytes of address, *but* when I read "the gap between the destination address and the IP header", I interpret that as "the gap between the *end* of the destination address and the beginning of the IP header", so that would be *12* bytes of address (address 2 and address 3), 2 bytes of sequence control, and 8 bytes of 802.2 and SNAP, i.e. 22 bytes.
