FWIW iwi sniffs by "scanning a channel" but since it wasn't possible to reliably abort a scan the scan requests were made for very short periods of time and then resubmitted on timeout. This means you can easily miss frames between resubmitted scan requests. SamReceived on Thu Jun 21 2007 - 21:28:25 UTC
