I also encountered something strange about networking with FireWire ports on WinXP, namely if an ethernet adapter and a firewire adapter are coupled together in a bridged adapter (or something like that) the networking ceases to function, no more IP conectivity no nothing. I don't believe it's a WinPcap bug, it looks like it is a NDIS bug if working with firewire adapters. I know NDIS 5 introduces an intermediate driver layer in the NDIS binding stack to support devices like ATM, USB or IEEE1394. Could this be the problem? So far I don't know of any ATM interface cards for NDIS, perhaps there are but haven't seen nor worked with them yet.
