Well I didn't have that problem. I use a old Linksys B version 3.0 =)

 Jacob Uecker [jacob () juecker net] was having the problem. Might want to
try that Jacob.

Todd,

I have a wireless environment that I'm trying to test and I'm having 
problems seeing an entire wireless TCP session.  When a wireless 
client connect sends an e-mail, Kismet will only see the packets that 
are traveling from the AP to the client, not from the client to the 
AP.

I seem to recall that this issue is related to the firmware version on
Orinoco cards.  Try upgrading to firmware 8.10
(http://www.proxim.com/support/software/ORiNOCO/PC_Card/Firmware/R7.4win
ter2002/WSU_810.exe).
