    I have a wireless sniffing question.

    Lets say I have a Linksys (or whichever brand you like) wireless
    router with a wireless host using 128 bit WEP encryption, and a wired
    host connected to the same device. Obviously it is possible for the
    wired box to do various arp attacks on the switch to view other wired
    hosts traffic. But does the same apply for the wireless host? Can the
    wired host trick the switch on the Linksys into forwarding the
    wireless clients packets to him via the regular wire?

    Thanks.
