Wireshark is not listing the Interface toolbars

Hi,

I am working with nrf52832 DK,softdevice s132.SDK15.

I was following "nRF_Sniffer_User_Guide_v2.0.pdf" to set up nRF Sniffer.

But in the Wireshark Application  under the tab "View" , the "Interface Toolbar " is not listed.

what should I do to use nRFSniffer?

Thanking you in advance.

with regards,

Geetha

  • I had this problem.  My mistake was to download the latest version of Python (3.7.1) but Wireshark needs 2.7. You also need to add Python to the PATH environment variable AND add the Python Scripts directory. For me: C:\Python27 and C:\Python27\Scripts.

    When you have installed pyserial you can test it by typing this at a console: python -m serial.tools.list_ports

    The sniffer hardware should appear as one of those ports.

    IMHO the nRF_Sniffer user guide would benefit from editing, as some steps or gotchas are skipped.
