promiscuous mode workaround #61

Closed Yousefjb closed 8 years ago

Yousefjb commented 8 years ago

hello,
i read in another issue here that WinDivert doesn't work in promiscuous mode, i just want to get things clear. I am doing ARP spoofing to redirect traffic in the network to my device where WinDivert works fine, i am loosing a few packets due to arp spoofing race condition, i though i could get these missed packets by using winpcap in promiscuous mode, i wonder if windivert will keep on working since the same interface now is used in promiscuous mode.
Thanks

It may be possible that WinDivert can capture the packet, however, it cannot block the packet as it is already a copy. At least that is my understanding of promiscuous mode.
