Hi.
 
You can try the netmon driver by using "netcap" which is provided with Windows XP (if I remember well, you must install it through the resource kit present on the XP installation CD).
 
Regarding dropping packets, winpcap can drop packets for a variety of reasons, like
-very slow capturing application
-dumping packets to disk
 
 
Have a nice day

Subject: [WinPcap-users] Using the netmon driver with WinPcap for Gigabit adapters.

Hello,
 
Has anyone tried using the netmon driver with WinPcap to see how it compares with the npf.sys driver?   In particular for packet capture with Gigabit Ethernet, does the netmon driver drop fewer packets?    The option of using netmon with a Gigabit NIC is not supported in the 3.1 beta release.   I am trying to figure out how to try this.
 
Thanks.
 
-Robert
