Having your timestamps even one second off will make the collation much more difficult. The packet capture will need to be collated with debug captures, and with other wired and/or wireless captures. If you have only a single channel sniffer available, then have it sniff the roamed-to channel. Step 5: If you can reproduce the problem when a client roams from one channel to another, then a 2-channel sniff should suffice. Since you might not have enough cards to capture all channels, it is a good practice for the test, to operate on not more than 4 channels on your surrounding Access Points. Step 4: If you are troubleshooting 5GHz, then the number of channels will dramatically increase. Using USB wireless adapters works best for this type of setup.

This involves using 3 Wireless adapters on your sniffing device, with each one set to channel 1, 6 and 11. Typically in the 802.11b/g (2.4GHz) environment, using a three channel sniffer may be required. Lock your sniffer to the channel of interest - do not use the sniffer's "scan channels" mode! (With "scan channels", the sniffer will cycle from channel to channel every second or so - useful for a site survey or to find "rogues", but not when attempting to capture an 802.11 problem.)Īlso bear in mind that your client device may roam to another AP which is on a different RF channel or Band, so you need to plan accordingly. Step 3: Understand exactly what 802.11 Channel and Band your client device is using before setting up your capture.

Step 2: Use a separate device to act as your wireless sniffer - you cannot take a good wireless sniffer trace if it is running on the device under test (the client machine you are trying to get a wireless trace of). This will allow your sniffing device to capture a good approximation of what your client device is hearing over the air. Step 1: Since the sniffing device, client device and AP are all using RF generating radios for transmission or reception, it helps to have your wireless sniffer close to your target device (the client machine). With Wireless sniffing it helps to have an idea of what you are really trying to do - you are trying to capture the raw wireless frames from over the air, as seen by the wireless sniffing device itself. But there are a few things to bear in mind that will help simplify and speed up this process. Send a Cc to yourself.The process of collecting a good wireless sniffer trace, in order to analyze and troubleshoot 802.11 behavior, can be a difficult and time consuming operation. Send it to: with a subject line of " Proj 3 From Your Name", replacing Your Name with your own first and last name.
