Why would I buy a WiFi Pilot bundle with 3 AirPcap adapters rather than just 1?
In some circumstances, being able to simultaneously capture on multiple channels and aggregate that packet information can be useful in determining comparative channel usage patterns, overall WLAN usage, and more. The AirPcap driver provides support for this operation through the Multi-Channel Aggregator technology that exports capture streams from multiple AirPcap adapters as a single capture stream. The Multi-Channel Aggregator consists of a virtual interface that can be used from Wireshark or any other AirPcap-based application. Using this interface, the application will receive the traffic from all installed AirPcap adapters, as if it was coming from a single device. The Multi-Channel Aggregator can be configured like any real AirPcap device, and therefore can have its own decryption, FCS checking, and packet filtering settings.
