Question

You have a Windows laptop computer with an integrated, dual-band, Wi-Fi compliant adapter. Your laptop computer has protocol analyzer software installed that is capable of capturing and decoding 802.11ac dat a. What statement best describes the likely ability to capture 802.11ac frames for security testing purposes?

Accepted Answer

Integrated 802.11ac adapters are not typically compatible with protocol analyzers in Windows laptops. It is often best to use a USB adapter or carefully select a laptop with an integrated adapter that will work.

Answer

Laptops cannot be used to capture 802.11ac frames because they do not support MU-MIMO.

Answer

Only Wireshark can be used to capture 802.11ac frames as no other protocol analyzer has implemented the proper frame decodes.

Answer

All integrated 802.11ac adapters will work with most protocol analyzers for frame capture, including the Radio Tap Header.

Answer

The only method available to capture 802.11ac frames is to perform a remote capture with a compatible access point.
