I am trying to inject frames by using the inject which is provided with the 
code, the 
  addr1=00:07:0e:b9:1f:4d add2=00:23:45:67:89:ab addr3=00:40:96:5a:a1:a1
i have a wireless card with mac address as addr1, and a access point with addr3.
they are in the same BSSID. does addr1 have to equal addr3?  i also tried to 
send the frame to the access point, which means addr1=addr3, but i got the same 
error. do i have to make the addr2 the same as my linksys wpc11 card, the one i 
am using right now is faked.
another problems i have now is that i was able to get the error message by 
using 4-19 version to do the injecting, when i switch to 5-04 version, i got 
nother from dmesg . why that ? 
 i also saw somebody talking about using wlan0ap to inject frames, how can i do 
it in that way ? i am new here, not very familiar with it yet.
  thansk a lot for the help.
