I'm receive wireless packet with Wireless Lan.

I want forward this packet to Ethernet.

Can i do this work?


Solution

  • You're trying to do network bridging. Windows has this support built in starting with XP. This will make your computer into a very expensive two port Ethernet switch (where the wireless link is a port).

    If you want to do some more fancy filtering, I suggest using a TUN/TAP driver or pcap/WinPCAP, which will allow you to receive raw frames.
