Supported Hardware

Ethernet

OmniPeek will run with a NDIS 3 or higher compatible Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or Gigabit promiscuous mode network adapter. Promiscuous mode is the ability to have OmniPeek take over the driver and put it into a mode that will allow it to passively capture all packets on an Ethernet wire, regardless of the address to which they are being sent/received.

For example, we are compatible with adapters from 3Com, Intel, Xircom, SMC, and many others.

Wireless

For wireless packet capture, Omnipeek requires the installation of a special driver corresponding to the supported wireless network adapter. WildPackets has tested Marvell-based, Atheros-based and Intel Centrino 3945-based cards for wireless capture. Other wireless cards may work with this version to the same degree that they worked in prior versions; however, these cards are not recommended. For more information and to download wireless drivers, please visit: OmniPeek Basic Wireless Drivers Page.
