No, there's no way to track, for example, the Retry flag in the Frame

data frames, and the frame control field will be discarded - there's
no place to put that information in a fake Ethernet header.

I.e., you want to run in monitor mode while still using the adapter for
normal traffic?
Whether you can do that depends on the adapter and the driver; as I
understand it, some adapters can support

Argh, thats are very very sad news. That dumps all my ideas. My project
was to track the retry field and in case of a dramitical increase switch

I.e., the first four octets of the source MAC address are valid and

I have a big problem to read incoming wlan-packets with pcap-library.
First I introduced my program the ieee_802_11_header struct for casting:
struct ieee_802_11_header {
__u16 frame_control; // needs to be subtyped
__u16 duration;
__u8mac
15 matches
