Airopeek Driver Installation:
The following page
describes the process required to install the Airopeek custom driver which is
required prior to use of Airopeek NX. It is only necessary to carry out
this procedure the first time you run the Airopeek tool, after the first time
Airopeek will automatically swap between your normal wireless card driver and
the Airopeek driver when you open and close the tool.
Before we begin you need
to ensure an Airopeek driver is available for your card, the list of supported
cards is available
here.
The first step is to
open device manager > right click on your wireless card > "Update Driver..."
Next you should ensure that "Install from a list or specific
location (Advanced)" is selected > click Next.
Now you should choose the "Don't search. I will choose the
driver to install." option > click Next.
Next, from the Hardware Update Wizard you should select "Have
Disk..."
You will now have to browse to the following folder "Program
Files > WildPackets > Airopeek NX > Driver". From here you will need
to enter the appropriate folder for your
wireless card e.g. "Atheros AR5001" and double click the relevant
.inf driver file, followed by OK > Next and "Continue Anyway"
to accept any driver signing warnings.
Your wireless card will now appear in Capture Options >
Adapter, select the card and click OK. Now "Start Capture" to test out
your new driver.
As already mentioned the Airopeek driver will be removed and
replaced with your standard wireless card driver when you close Airopeek and
automatically restored when you restart Airopeek.
