Hi!

I have a problem with a wimax-simple example. It produces .pcap files for base stations and subscriber stations, but when I open them using wireshark or tcpdump most of the packets are malformed and all sources and destinations are set to 00:00:00_00:00:00. Why is it so? Is there anything I can do with this bug? I am using the newest ns3 version - 3.21 and the newest Wireshark v1.12.3. This is a fragment of what I get in Wireshark:

Hi,

unfortunately the WiMAX module has a number of bugs and no maintainer. If you want to try to tackle the bug we'll be more than happy to review and push in the code the patch.
