RadioTap headers in scapy

Viewed 3718

I'm trying to send and receive packets with scapy and read the RadioTap Header. The wireless adapter (and driver) is able to handle those headers, but I can't seem to get them.

Whenever I send a normal packet in scapy, is does not contain such a header (thus, sniffing packets and checking one with pkt.haslayer(RadioTap) returns 0, and I am not able to display the header like with pkt[RadioTap].show() ). If I explicitly construct my packets with a RadioTap header (like in a pkt = RadioTap() and view it, I can get a RadioTap header, but it is empty. After sending it and receiving it, I can get still nothing.

I read posts like this one. But I don't have the problem that the RadioTap header doesn't get decoded, it's simply not filled with anything.

I'm using scapy 2.3.1, if this makes any difference. Any ideas?
