I am having the same problem. Running latest wireshark 1.8.6 on a Macbook Pro capturing wifi packets, if I enable monitor mode I can see all kinds of traffic but I can't tell what it is, because it says everything is an 802.11 packet (it doesn't decode them into TCP/IP). If I disable monitor mode I can see only my own traffic. Any help?– GaryOCommented Mar 15, 2013 at 17:27

You're probably on an encrypted (WEP/WPA) network. In order to dissect the traffic, it would have to be encrypted; see the Wireshark Wiki page about decrypting 802.11 traffic. (After all, the whole point of encrypting Wi-Fi networks is to make it harder to sniff the network!)– user164970Commented Apr 24, 2013 at 1:29

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
