I agree.

I'm not sure how up-to-date the https://secwiki.org/w/Npcap/WiFi_adapters page is.  \
For example, my Wireless network card is the "Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 8260" card \
and I've been able to capture WiFi traffic in monitor mode just fine using \
WlanHelper.exe, despite that page indicating that it doesn't work.  Of course my \
driver version is slightly newer than the one listed there, being 20.70.6.1 instead \
of 20.70.1.1, so perhaps that's the reason.  Or possibly it didn't work with older \
versions of npcap, so I'd recommend trying it with the latest available version, \
currently 0.9983 from https://nmap.org/npcap/.

For more information on configuring "Wireless Capture on Windows", I'll refer you to \
Jasper Bongertz's Blog post of the same name here: \
