What matters is whether all the data dissected in the packet is bigger  
than the snapshot length; in an SMB request or response, for example,  
that would include any radio header the packet has, the 802.11 header,  
the IP header, the TCP header, the NetBIOS-over-TCP or SMB-over-TCP  
header, and the entire SMB message, with the possible exception of  
data in a read reply or write request.

Could you extract from the capture file one of the packets that's  
claimed to have been cut short and send it to us?
