Npcap 1.30
Installer and debug symbols available at https://npcap.org/#download
-
Restore raw WiFi frame capture support, which had been broken in a few ways
since Npcap 0.9983. Additional improvements enablePacketSetMonitorMode()
for non-admin-privileged processes, allowing Wireshark to correctly enable
monitor mode via checkbox without requiring WlanHelper.exe. -
Fixed WlanHelper.exe to correctly set modes and channels for adapters, if run
with Administrator privileges. Fixes #122. -
Improved speed of
pcap_findalldevs()
by using fewer calls to
GetAdaptersAddresses()
and avoiding direct Registry inspection. The new
method may result in more adapters being available for capture than
previously reported. See #169. -
Updated Packet.dll to use modern
HeapAlloc()
allocation, faster than the
legacyGlobalAlloc()
inherited from WinPcap. -
Improve error reporting from
PacketGetAdapterNames()
and related functions.
